_ispressed captial and lower case not working

[loki1982]

Just messing around with the _ispressed function and cant get it to differentate between lower and uppercase. Here is what ive got, and I just cant figure it out.

While 1

Sleep ( 250 )

Select

case _IsPressed("41", $dll)

MsgBox(0,"_IsPressed", "A")

case _IsPressed("61", $dll)

MsgBox(0,"_IsPressed", "a")

EndSelect

WEnd

DllClose($dll)

according to the help file value "41" is uppercase A, and "61" is lower case a. It always displays "A" in my message box. If I comment out the case statement for value "41" no message box will appear no matter if I try lower or upper case A.

ok wierd. If I use the asc function to find the value of a and A I get 97 for a and 65 for A. Im really confused now

For _IsPressed function it doesn't matter if is A or a, it`s important if the key was pressed.

If use Asc code, it`s important that is A or a.

Asc("A") = 64 (41 Hex)

Asc("a") = 97 (61 Hex)

I hope you got it right?

ok I think I got it. So what would you suggest if I want to check and see if a captial A was pressed, or a lower case a? Any suggestion?

Nevermind I figured it out. I added an if statement to afterward to check if shift was being pressed down.

Thanks for your help
