You can simply handle the KeyDown event for a form or control. The KeyDown event receives the KeyEventArgs parameter, which allows to you to determine the key pressed by looking at e.KeyCode.

Answer 2

each control in c# (windows forms) has keypress, keydown, keyup that you can trap
if you want to do int form level then form has those as well,
you basically just do the same with form
