Public Class Form1
Dim hold As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs = Nothing
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyDown
hold = e
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
' True for 'a' or shifted 'a'
If hold.KeyValue = Asc("A") Then
If hold.Shift Then
' ("A was typed")
' Replace it with accented big A
e.KeyChar = CChar(("A"))
Else
'("a was typed")
' Replace it with accented little A
e.KeyChar = CChar(("a"))
End If
End If
End Sub
End Class

well the signature is incorrect for the method. it should be this....
double click on the keydown event in the form events (click on form in main designer, click on the events tab (lightning symbol) and download click the keydown event)
you should then get something like this in code view...
private sub Form1_KeyDown(byval sender as object, byval e as System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) handles Me.KeyDown
end sub
in between this, you paste in the code you want
what errors do you get it would help if you can post them
