Please disregard my reply... i got my code from a coworker and after
some testing based on your post I believe the code I am using is
incorrect.

        Hi,
        
        I am trying to trap the ctrl key along with a combination of any
other
        alphanumeric key by using the following code on a DataGrid
control:
        
        public void myKeyDown(event:KeyBoardEvent):void {
        if ( event.ctrlKey && event.keyCode == 67 ) // for 'C'
        {
        // copy selected row
        }
        }
        
        This does not seem to work. Nor is any other key combination
detected
        when we use the ctrl key. 
        
        Isnt this the way to handle keyboard events ? Is there any other
        explicit way to handle it ?
        
        Regards,
        Asgar.
