Actually you can't. Not in the KeyPress Event anyway. You can do it on the KeyDown or KeyUp events but for some reason KeyPress is different. in the KeyDown or KeyUp events you can simply put Console.WriteLine(e.KeyValue.ToString()); and f1 to f5 will be 112-117. Don't forget you can always use the 'Keys' enum for comparison if(e.KeyValue == Keys.F1) getHelp();
