question in hotkey ??

pease be with you

hi

there is a big problem !!!

i get a api code called " RegisterHotKey " , in the consts there is :

Code:

---

Private Const MOD_ALT = &H1
Private Const MOD_CONTROL = &H2
Private Const MOD_SHIFT = &H4

---

me question is : ??

i want to know what this means ( " &H1 " " &H2 " " &H4 " ) and it's name ??

if this characters mean a thing in a " keyboard " plz write to

all the keyboard keys in this case

thanks

those are numbers in hex.

their values are 1 2 and 4
the following does the same thing.

generally in api's hex values are used especially for large numbers
and using numbers that represent the power of 2 allows OR and AND statements to work nicely

Private Const MOD_ALT = 1
Private Const MOD_CONTROL = 2
Private Const MOD_SHIFT = 4
