How do you assign a keyboard key to a Button in Visual Basic?

Answer 1

VB stands for Virtual Basic, an event-based programming language that is also Microsoft's integrated development environment that was released in the early 1990s. Mouse events are what happen when you click mouse buttons, and keyboard events occur when you press keys on your keyboard.

Answer 2

Make a form. Go to its events tab. Double click on the text that says: "FormClosing". You should be taken to the code to Form1_FormClosing(). Under here, write MsgBox("Window is closing!"). Debug your program and press the X button. The message box should pop up.

Answer 3

While writing Caption (in vb) and Text (in vb.net) place '&' symbol before the letter you want to assign from keyboard. While executing, press ALT and that letter to access the button via keyboard
