This?

For $i = 0 To 255
    HotKeySet(Chr($i), "HotKeyFunc")
Next

While True
    Sleep(600000)
WEnd

Func HotKeyFunc()
    MsgBox(0, "Test", @HotKeyPressed)
    Send(@HotKeyPressed)
EndFunc

let me clarify what it is that im doing...

im making a log of my key frequencies, just cuz im curious. so what i want is (in psuedo-code)

set all buttons to execute function 'updatelog'

updatelog will make $array[keynum] go up by 1

it will then write to a file 'chr($array[keynum]) - pressed $array[keynum] tims

...hope this helps

Ya, I think the people at autoit make sure it's not easy to make 'bad' programs. You can use this to see the keys that do work and the asc code for them.

Opt("ExpandVarStrings", 1)

For $i = 0 To 255
    HotKeySet(Chr($i), "HotKeyFunc")
Next

$timer = ""
While True
    Sleep(6000)
    If $timer <> "" Then
        If TimerDiff($timer) > 500 Then $timer = ToolTip("")
    EndIf
WEnd

Func HotKeyFunc()
    ToolTip("@HotKeyPressed@@CRLF@-----@CRLF@" & Asc(@HotKeyPressed), 10, 10)
    $timer = TimerInit()
    HotKeySet(@HotKeyPressed)
    Send(@HotKeyPressed)
    HotKeySet(@HotKeyPressed, "HotKeyFunc")
EndFunc

[edit]

Lol, I found the problem. It's in the helpfile.

"Up to 64 simultaneous hotkeys per script may be registered."
