Hotkeyset Problem

[Achilles]

This is my code, ASC 099 is equilavent to c. The hotkey doesn't work.

HotkeySet("{ASC 099}", '_Testing')

WHile 1 
    Sleep(1000) 
WEnd 

Func _Testing() 
    Msgbox(0, 'Hotkey Pressed', 'WEIRD!!!') 
EndFunc

Right in the help file! , add a 0 before 99.

To send the ASCII value A (same as pressing ALT+065 on the numeric keypad)

Send("{ASC 065}")

(When using 2 digit ASCII codes you must use a leading 0, otherwise an obsolete 437 code page is used).

Should of mentioned, I already tried it with the 0 and it sill didn't work. I'll change in my example code though...

But... why not use the c? Maybe it's because {ASC 065} is not a key?

Send('{ASC 065}')

sends c

And, for my Multiple Desktops program, I'm trying to make customizable hotkeys... And it's easier this way, I think..

[Nahuel]

Send('{ASC 065}')

sends c

You know what I mean... c is a key on the keyboard, and asc 065 is a character... But I don't know...

This worked...

MsgBox (0, "", Chr (097))
HotKeySet (Chr (097), "RunThis")

While 1
    Sleep (10)
WEnd

Func RunThis ()
    MsgBox (0, "", "Key Pressed: " & @HotKeyPressed)
    Exit
EndFunc

EDIT: Also note this:

{ASC nnnn} Send the ALT+nnnn key combination
