You need only this palette. Other VIs (mylib) are from my application, you don't need them.

Hello,

This is another way of access to the keyboard using the event structure. Unfortantly your VI needs to be in focus, but I thought it might be of interest.

You basicly use the Key down event and wire the input terminal of a case statement to the "char" termainal. The "char" terminal is the ASCII character that was pressed in the Key down event. I used a Type cast to convert the ASCII number to a string.

But for other users it can be interesting.

Thank you, Eugen
