Shift+F2 Zoom in Citrix

[nanmoon]

Since the Shift+F2 hotkey is reserved in the Citrix environment to switch between desktops, I cannot use the hotkey in my Access application to trigger the Zoom window. Is there any other way to open the Zoom window in Access or any other work around? Thanks for all replies.

In the Double Click event of the textbox you want to zoom, put the following code...

Private Sub YourTextBox_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdZoomBox

End Sub

I don't think IMO's answer fits the question.

As far as I can see you can't reprogram Access to use a different combination. Although I sometimes work with in the Citrix environment, I don't know if you can re-assign the Shift+F2 here.

So my answer was no help either!

Is it possible to use the keypreview / keycode events on the form. Or maybe sendkeys ?

Personally I created my own form to look like the zoom box, then coded it to open from a double-click event from the text box as well as a small square command button with a magnifying glass on it.
