Using a keystroke instead of a clickbox

I would like to require that a trainee use a keystroke instead of clicking in a click box to answer a question correctly. Does anyone know how to do this?

I would hide the click box in a corner, and make it as small as possible. Then you should be able to assign a 'Shortcut' in the Action section of the properties for the click box, that can be used instead of clicking on it. Just click on the Shortcut field and press the key(s) you want the short cut to be.

I did as you suggested and it works! Now, though, I have a problem with an incorrect keystroke. If they choose the wrong key, a "incorrect answer" box doesn't appear (as it does with a wrong click). Maybe I just need to include the direction that they should click on the screen if they don't know the answer??

Odd, it shows the failure message when I type the wrong key.

Here is a quick sample presentation: http://realeyesconnect.adobeconnect.com/p83evtitty7/

i also unchecked the Allow Click option, and have all but the Incorrect Feedback disabled.
