c# - how to manage CONTROL + digit on a TextBox?

starting by saying I'm a newbie on C#, I would like to know how to manage on a TextBox, events like the CTRL + A, or CTRL + S, or CTRL + some digit.

TextBox has the method KeyDown, and I think I should use this, but I don't understand how to understand when a user presses first CTRL, then presses one random digit (still with pressed CTRL).

Thank you in advance.

On the KeyDown Method (or KeyUp or any other one dealing with KeyEventArgs) you can write:

private void textBox1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.KeyCode == Keys.E && e.Modifiers == Keys.Control)
    {
      //Both CTRL + E were pressed
    }
}

Try this in KeyDown or KeyUp or anywhere

if (Control.ModifierKeys.HasFlag(Keys.Control))
{ 
    //user is holding control
}
