Thanks as by trail and error I figured out another RB function the
Timer...
But I need to know how to set it as it is very slow in response
time getting or checking for the key pressed.
This is one of the shortcomings of a Timer as it only runs when there
are no other Main threads running. It basically waits for all other
code to stop and the computer is in its "Idle" mode waiting for user
Input. This can result in a delayed response that you may not be
aware of.
To circumvent that, you will actually have to write a real Thread and
handle it appropriately. That's considerably more complicated than a
Timer though.
I got the MODE set to Multiply, and the Period to that of 10.
Now, will going any lower then 100 make any real difference?
Nope, it just makes the difference between a tenth and a hundredth of
a second. That's insignificant if you hold the key down.
I got the Capture code down as Aaron Ballmans code truly help me
there, with help of another on here that suggested it to me. I am
now going to modify it by making it able to capture the Whole
screen or just the highlighted (focused) window that is currently
active.
This will help as to making the help screens or just grabbing pics
of screen code to view on web sites
As an exercise, you will learn a lot but I'm sure there are many
other Screen Capture programs that do the same thing. :)

Terry
