Maybe I misunderstood, but if I have a listbox and add the following  
code to the keydown event:

   if keyboard.AsyncCommandKey and key = "A" then
     me.AddRow "CMD-A"
     return true
   end if

pressing command-A gets captured and CMD-A is added to the list for  
each time I press it... Is this not what you're looking for?
