Does anyone know why the KeyPress Event doesn't get fired when the user presses a down arrow? I have to look for it in the KeyDown event. I was just wondering if this was something that I was doing wrong or not?

According to the documentation of the KeyPress event (assuming you are using WinForms):
The KeyPress event is not raised by noncharacter keys; however, the noncharacter keys do raise the KeyDown and KeyUp events.
The down arrow key isn't a character key, so this event shouldn't be raised for it.

Use KeyDown instead
Public Class Form1 Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown Debug.WriteLine(e.KeyData.ToString + " KeyDown") End Sub Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress Debug.WriteLine(e.KeyChar.ToString + " KeyPress") End Sub End Class
