Have a form. Clicked this property to true. Added three events keymouse down, up, press. Added a message box to each. So far so good.

click into an edit box, type something, msgbox tells me what key was pressed, YEA.

Is there any way to capture Alt-F4? Esc? Enter? Arrow keys, etc.?

Take a look at the VB6 help for the KeyUp event on MSDN, I expect it is very similar...

Basically, the Shift parameter will hold if shift, ctrl, alt is being held, and Key will be the key code for the other key. "special" keys like you list are defined as constants in VB, so I guess you would need to define them yourself vbKeyEscape = 27 for example.
