Quick Question

Hello everyone, I was just wondering how I would go about making it so a button which currently performs an action will perform the same action if I press the enter key instead? I am using Visual Basic 2008 express edition. Could someone also tell me what the dimensions of a normal window are? (EG, full size window on google chrome) Thanks

To detect enter keypress you can use a timer which will check if the key is pressed and then click the button within code. Or you can place the code inside the if statement.

If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
Button1.PerformClick()
end if

A full sized window can really depend on the computers resolution. If you want to get the dimensions of the users full sized window you can use.

        Dim DimensionX
        Dim DimensionY
        'Put window in its maximized state
        Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized
        'Grab width and height of window
        dimensionx = Me.Width
        DimensionY = Me.Height
