Capturing letters typed on a Russian keyboard

[kembreg]

On a US keyboard, one could have code like :

If Lettertyped = "A" then ....

How does one go about capturing letters on a Russian keyboard?

i.e.

If lettertyped = "Л" then...
If lettertyped = "Щ" then...

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not much of a character-set kinda guy, but ..

@kembreg: It's basicly the same as on US keyboard. The problem is that you have to *compile* your sources w/ machine code page set to cp1251 for "Л" and "Щ" to be compiled correctly to unicode in the binary because in the sources these are single-byte encoded in current code page.

Another option is to replace these string literals with Chr$ or ChrW$ as to be independant from build machine code page i.e. keep default cp1252 for US locale on build machine and still be able to operate correctly at run-time on locales w/ cp1251 code page set.
