you realise that I'm just guessing at all of this!! I was trying to give fairly generic answers hoping that you'd adapt them or they'd trigger some amazing technique... As i haven't gotten around to looking at the DirectXInput section yet (only read the SDK parts breifly)... You can do faster keybinding than that - but it'd need to be fixed (you could use DLL's to hold different generic setups); for example: bKey(0 to 64) '// u aint gonna be using all 255 characters... Call ParseFunction(SomeKeyNumber,[ParamList]) Private Function ParseFunction(Keyn, ...) select case Keyn Case 0 case 1 case 2 case ... case n end select end function A rather strange way of doing it, but it's fast and simple...
