For TextArea1 it is TextArea1_KeyPress().

Within the event function, there is key.Code you can ask for the ASCII 
value of the key e. g. by using a select case thing. Then you have some 
key.XXX functions that return values for special keys (Backspace, Return 
etc.).

Well, uppercase A is 65, Z is 90, lowercase a is 97 and z is 122.

Try it out - does it help?
