Form KeyUp

[rfazendeiro]

hi to all,

I'm makin an application that when the user presses the F3 key a form will popup.

I have a main form that is a Mdi_parent but when i key press it does nothing...dont understand why. Here is the code i have

[csharp]
private void fmrMain_KeyUp(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.F3)
{

fmrPopUP pop = new fmrPopUP ();
pop .MdiParent = this.MdiParent;
pop .Show();
}
}
[/csharp]

any ideias?

Is the main form's KeyPreview property set to true?

Thx
