I?m currently using SendKeys ?{esc}? to cancel a user?s input in some situations in BeforeUpdate events, as sometimes they don?t know how to go back to what the field said before they changed it.

However, I?ve found SendKeys seems to be buggy ? does anyone know an alternative?

What is the bug you are encountering? Under what circumstances? More details and I might be able to give you a work-around.

I use SendKeys infrequently, but I have not had any big problems with it. Generally when I want to manipulate keypresses I do things in the Keypress or KeyDown/KeyUp event handlers.
