In a field's OnKeyPress properties I can execute code that reveals the
Ascii key that is pressed:

On Key Press: [Event Procedure]

Private Sub FieldName_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
Dim x as Integer
If KeyAscii = x then Call RunSomeFunction
End Sub

Is it possible to do the same if I call a function from the property
window of the control:

On Key Press: =RunSomeOtherFunction(???KeyAscii???)

Function RunSomeOtherFunction(KeyAscii As Integer)
Dim x as Integer
If KeyAscii = x then
call RunSomeExcitingCode
End If
End Function

Call the function from within the event as you indicate in your first
example. You can pass the key code in that call if you are wanting to pass
it.
