Anybody got any idea how to do this?

They don't get handled with the regular keydown/keypressed events

thanks,

See the help on msdn on

The PRINT SCREEN key has a value of 44 .

you can use the Keys enumration class (for print screen it is
Keys.PrintScreen)

private void KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.PrintScreen)
{
// do something...
}
}


Hope this helps.
