I have no idea about web application; however in a WinForm application it should be as simple as setting Text property of button to “&Show”. This will allow you to use ‘Alt+S’ to fire click event of ‘Show’ button. -Dave.

Thank you for Reply. Ok It may be a process, but i want to set any shortcut like Ctrl+s, Ctrl+Shift+s,Alt+Shift+s, F1, or any other combination. If anyone have any idea about this, Please reply me. Thank you once again.

For Web Applications, you may then need to handle the onKeyDown event handlers yourself in JavaScript.

Hi, as far as I know, you have to program i manualy. So build up a list of buttons and the combination of keypresses, theu should react on. And look at ProcessCmdKey in your form, figure out, whicht key is pressed on the form and fire the right button.PerformClick(). Happy coding Willibert

In a web app, you need to handle keypress events and write the code to do whatever you want. In javascript.

Hello, Willibert has already answered your question in a very nice way. However if you do not want to use ProcessCmdKey, in that case you may simply set KeyPreview property of Form to true and then use KeyPress event of Form to trap keys, and call any method as per need. -Dave.
