Thanks

Assigning event handlers is part of the C# language, it's fairly standard/basic stuff and any C# tutorial would teach you that :)

Then I would say that you need to learn up to the level of that. Just my thought's. Its not that hard just alot of reading and trail and error.

don't forget that you need to set the "KeyPreview" property to "True" if you want the form itself to process keystrokes.
