Laptop Controlling a Motor

I was wondering if anyone knew how to make a laptop control a motor but not like in LV front panel using some sliders and stuff.... I'm talking about using keyboard keys to run a motor forward/reverse. (eg When i hold "E" it goes full forward and when i hold "D" it goes full reverse)

Is this possible?

I have been playing around quite a bit in LV and i can't seem to find a function that would do this... Perhaps i overlooked something?!

Thanks!
