How can I cancel a cancel a key from being pressed in one of my textboxes in vb6?
Hi everyone,
What i'm trying to do here is basically only allow upper and lowercase letters to be entered into a textbox on my form. In the keypress event I can detect what I need fine, but how do I go about not letting that key through if it isn't a letter. I've been reading that I need to do something with the KeyEventArgs.Handled property in the System.Windows.Forms.dll? I've been reading and reading on MSDN and other sites and I just can't seem to figure this out. I need some help! Thanks guys

Visual Basic Classic
Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

The code you have been reading about is intended for a VB.NET application (which can be quite different from VB6 code as jpaulino has shown...)!!!
