Access vba - how to turn on the keyboard NUMLOCK key

Every time I use Sendkeys "{ESC}" it turns off the keyboard NUMLOCK key.  Can I turn this back on using vba?

Answer

See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25977933/sendkeys-is-messing-with-my-numlock-key-via-vba-code-in-access-form it covers the subject very well and offers a couple different solutions.

PS: Why are you using SendKeys, it should be avoided at all cost as they are not reliable and in 99.9% of cases it can be coded without the need of SendKeys.  If you explain what you are using it for, we may be able to offer an alternative approach.
