Here's my code: case WM_KEYDOWN: if (Wparam == VK_PROCESSKEY) { VkCode = ImmGetVirtualKey(hwndDlg); } else { VkCode = Wparam; } When the value of Wparam is VK_PROCESSKEY, the value returned by ImmGetVirtualKey is another VK_PROCESSKEY instead of the actual key that the user tapped in the system input panel. Is there any way to really find what key the user tapped? Hmm, I think so because some applications like Pocket Word can get them. So how is it done? If the user taps the backspace key, Esc (escape) key, etc., in the system input panel then the value of Wparam already the VK code of the key that was tapped and I didn't experiment with ImmGetVirtualKey in those cases. Anyway the problem is to find what key was tapped whenever a key was tapped.

From: Norman Diamond on 27 Sep 2006 21:08 Mr./Ms. Chen, Thank you for your posting but your code does not work. Please post working code if you can, because I still need to find the key that the user actually tapped. Yes I am using Windows CE 5 (Windows Mobile 5). The value of pContext->uSavedVKey is also VK_PROCESSKEY instead of the VK code of the key that the user tapped. This is the third copy of VK_PROCESSKEY that my program obtains now. I still need to get the VK code of the key that the user actually tapped in the system input panel.

From: Norman Diamond on 3 Oct 2006 21:27 OK. Anyone else then? Please, does anyone know how to get the VK code of the key that the user actually tapped? Three ways of getting the value VK_PROCESSKEY have not accomplished this.
