Detect if Shift Key is pressed when script is started


Recommended Posts

Hi

I have tried searching forums for this but not having much luck. I have created a simple gui with 2 radio buttons. When the user selects a radio button and then clicks ok several ini files are replaced on their C drive and then an application is started using the run command. This allows the user to conect to a different database whenever they want. So far so good. However we also have a development environment and i would like only certain users to be able to select that option.

In a similar way to Microsoft Access i would like to hold the shift key down when the program is loaded and if this is detected then create a third radio button with the development ini files being copied to the machine.

I have looked at "_ispressed" function but can't find much info on how to use shift key

Any ideas on how i can do this or if there is a better way to achieve my goal.

Thanks in advance

DllClose($dll)
