The example itself is in VB6 (references a custom hook dll), but it does include the hook source with it which is written in C++.

Quick test of the apps shows it does return {Shift}{Num 0} and not {Insert} so it should allow you to work out how its being done.

My mistake. I was just inspecting it and it seems bit 24 of the lParam will be set if you're using the regular insert key and cleared if you do shift+numpad0. But it still registers as an insert keystroke.

How about a trick checking if shift is being pressed. You can check modifiers, can't you? I'ts been a while since I have done anything win32.

Posts: 2640/5072		 I set up a keyboard hook to detect when keys are pressed, but Windows isn't reporting the exact status of the keys. If I press Shift+Numpad 0, it reports it as being Insert that's pressed. Can I make it still report Numpad 0 somehow?
