    keypress

    By detecting WM_KEYDOWN I can get the key code but how do I get the ascii code that are mapped to them?

    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13

    Re: keypress

    Can you use WM_CHAR in stead?

    Re: keypress

    Since I am leaving now, just let me show a small example..

    Code:
    case WM_CHAR:
    {
    int ascii_code = wparam; //The ascii code
    int key_state = lparam;  //What other special keys like Alt/Shift was pressed
    
    // take whatever action
    
    } break;
