Saving key codes in a variable for use in a function As3

Question

I was wondering if there was a way to save keycodes in a variable that can be used in a function comparing that saved variable with the key that was pressed to trigger the function.

I.e - I am trying to save a keyCode in a variable for use in a function that checks if the key pressed is the same as the saved keyCode

Can you describe a little more clearly what you're trying to do? — Marty

There is already a class, Keyboard, which has a static list of the keycodes you could want:

import flash.ui.Keyboard;

trace(Keyboard.A); // 65

Had none of Keyboard.A available, then updated FlashDevelop - there it is. I had to accommodate to this previously :D
