I need help with this VB program
I have a keypad that i use on my keyboard for music I need help with the vb script to make it work right I would like to instead of just tapping each button once on the xkeys keypad, can the programming be altered to take in 'double button' inputs. I would like to alter some of the buttons to accept double digit inputs. To try to describe it, you would tap '00' , '01' , '02' , .. and so on all the way to '99'.
What this would allow me to do, would be to have 100 commands contained within those 10 buttons. That's the way I have a keypad set up now that I'm using..but that keypad is so old already and the software has stability issues as os's keep evolving. It's called 'AutoKEY' and it dates back to the win95 days (see attached image).
. if any one can help with this i would be so much greatful. the code is here

I know a little in vb like how to do calulations event handles stuff like that. I program more in c#.
do you understand how to define variables?
do you know where general declarations is located?
do you know how to assign values to variables?
do you know how to compare variable values?

yes i do understand all you wrote i just was needed sometype of example on the code to change so i can get this to work right thats all

This keyboard interface seems to respond to keydown/keyup events. The way I would approach your stated result is that I would add two variables at the module level to track the last key up number and the time of that last key up. Add code that will compare the prior key up number to the current key up number, if it is the same number, then subtract the prior timestamp value from the current timestamp. You will need to set a time threshhold, below which a double-tap of a key will result in some different action, rather than two of those digits.
In the special case (double-click), you will need to cancel the second character from getting to the program. When I've done something like this for VB textbox controls, I set the Keycode=0.
