Key Press to Close Form VB.net - vb.net

Question

So I've been working on this project to autorun on my flash drive, whenever it gets plugged it. It just displays my contact info and a little message, so I can get it returned.
Because I want people to actually read the message, the close button is disabled. You have to check a little box, and then hit the "OK" button.
Of course, I don't want to do this whenever I plug in my own flash drive. I'm trying to make a keyboard shortcut to close it automatically. I saw this post here but it didn't work for me. Here's the code from that post:
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
If e.Alt AndAlso e.KeyCode = Keys.X Then
Application.Exit()
End If
End Sub
Any help is very appreciated. Thanks!
Also, if you think my code is sloppy and want to clean it up, here it is.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
e.Cancel = True
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonOK.Click
End
End Sub
Private Sub CheckBox1_CheckedChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles CheckBox1.CheckedChanged
If CheckBox1.Checked = True Then
ButtonOK.Enabled = True
Else
ButtonOK.Enabled = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Label1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Label1.Click
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
If e.Alt AndAlso e.KeyCode = Keys.X Then
End
End If
End Sub
End Class

Firstly, NEVER EVER use End. That is just plain bad under any circumstances.
What you should be doing is testing the Checked value of your CheckBox in the FormClosing event handler and cancelling if and only if it's not checked. Logically, you should then check the CheckBox and call Close on the form when you detect that desired key combination.
Actually, I'd probably not call Close either, but rather call PerformClick on the Button. That way, the key combination is guaranteed to do exactly the same thing as clicking the Button.
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ButtonOK.Click
Close()
End Sub
Private Sub CheckBox1_CheckedChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles CheckBox1.CheckedChanged
ButtonOK.Enabled = CheckBox1.Checked
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
If e.Alt AndAlso e.KeyCode = Keys.X Then
CheckBox1.Checked = True
ButtonOK.PerformClick()
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
e.Cancel = Not CheckBox1.Checked
End Sub
