Hello I’m looking for how to use the enter key instead of the e key in this program.

Welcome to the forum @Lorenzo! 😀
For some keys you have to check the special constants against `keyCode` instead of `key` (SHIFT or LEFT / RIGHT / UP / DOWN arrows) but this is not the case for ENTER or RETURN (it varies depending on your keyboard layout and platfform)
```auto
rect_fill = color(126)
def draw():
fill(rect_fill)
rect(25, 25, 50, 50)
def keyPressed():
global rect_fill
if key == ENTER:
rect_fill = 0
elif key == RETURN:
rect_fill = 255
else:
rect_fill = 126
```
Next time, check out the “preformatted text” option when composing messages (````` ) so you can post better formatted code 🙂
