flash and keyboard keys

I'm very new to flash but am getting a good grasp of it freom the help i have received from here and other places.

I am wondering if i'm on a main movie and a certain key stroke are enter, if i can get it to do an action.

For example, if i press CTRL+Shift and F6 all at once, it will flash a light or something.

Is there any cool code to catch key strokes like that.

Thanks

Thanks,

this is the code i came up with and it works:

Code:

if (key.isDown(Key.CONTROL) && key.isDown(Key.SHIFT))
{
	if(Key.getCode() == 117)
	{
		txt = "Yeh";
	}
}

Cheers Again
