The events "keyinput" or "keypress" are better than "keydown" I think ;) But I don't know if there's a way to manipulate the pressed key.

Is this possible? Tobias -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Daniel Haferkorn Gesendet: Montag, 11.
