Can't get my Alt Hotkeyset right

G'day everyone

I'm trying to create a shortcut key for two letters, by using the AltGr or Right Alt key plus a letter, but the script has no effect on the default behaviour of those keys. Here's the code:

HotKeySet("{RALT}o", "osmall")
HotKeySet("+{RALT}o", "obig")
HotKeySet("{RALT}e", "esmall")
HotKeySet("+{RALT}e", "ebig")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd


Func osmall()
Send ("ɔ")
EndFunc

Func obig()
Send ("Ɔ")
EndFunc

Func esmall()
Send ("ɛ")
EndFunc

Func ebig()
Send ("Ɛ")
EndFunc

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, please?

Thanks

Samuel

From the helpfile for HotKeySet

The following hotkeys cannot be set:

Ctrl+Alt+Delete It is reserved by Windows

F12 It is also reserved by Windows, according to its API.

NumPad's Enter Key Instead, use {Enter} which captures both Enter keys on the keyboard.

Win+B,D,E,F,L,M,R,U; and Win+Shift+M These are built-in Windows shortcuts. Note: Win+B and Win+L might only be reserved on Windows XP and above.

Alt, Ctrl, Shift, Win These are the modifier keys themselves!

Other Any global hotkeys a user has defined using third-party software, any combos of two or more "base keys" such as '{F1}{F2}', and any keys of the form '{LALT}' or '{ALTDOWN}'.

=================================

I guess that would mean that {RALT} can not be used either ....
