inkey$() is the function you're looking for.

it would be

if (inkey$())="k"
commands
endif

you can replace the k with almost any key

so (inkey$())="r"

etc.

no no i mean if there's any function that know if i only press a key (not if the key is down such as in inkey$ and upkey etc...)
in visual basic it's called key press, it's also have key down and key up.

In vb these are Events, raised by the the parent object. There is no equivalent in dbp for this in hte true sense but...

Quote: "if upkey()=1 and jumpflag=0 then jumpflag=1 : do the jump
if jump=done then jumpflag=0 "


is the logic you can use to mimic this
