Is there some reason why the Input$() function will not take data from the computer number pad? Luna.

Try pressing the Num Lock key. That should unlock the num pad :)

That won't help. I don't know why it doesn't accept input from the number pad. There are a couple gui's running around that do accept numpad input, there might also be an input function in the code archives that does as well.

Perhaps these GUI's you are talking about aren't using Input$() command.

dynaman (Posted 2003) [#5]

correct - they aren't. They use the keyhit or keydown commands and map the input into ascii text.
