Turn Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock ON / OFF

Learn how to toggle Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock using Access VBA. We'll see how to turn them ON and OFF, and to read their current state so that you can either set them to ON, or set them to OFF.

Nancy from Swanton, Maryland (a Gold Member) asks: How can I use SendKeys to turn Scroll Lock ON. Right now, it only toggles between ON and OFF. I need to just set it ON when I click a button.
