Give the form a button (normally labelled "Cancel") with the DialogResult property set to Cancel. Set the forms CancelButton property to this button. It'll do the rest.

Did you know: That by counting the rings on a tree trunk, you can tell how many other trees it has slept with.

On the form's key down event, try using this code or something sinilar.

private void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Escape)
this.Hide();
}

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick - Silverlight *.XCP files. Visit the Hindi forum here.
