I’ve searched repeatedly, looking for tables that have the full list of the number equivalent for letters on the keyboard, like Key.(##) for letter ‘a’

Anyone know where one is?

Its actually available in the Flash help and fairly easy to find on the net as well:

You can get the numbers straight from Flash using ActionScript as well.

Additionally, the Key codes are not the same as ASCII codes (ASCII has different codes for upper and lower case, while key codes are the same).

Ah – I should have looked at arcane’s link first…it has both of them there. Oh well…
