    This can be done with accelerators and TranslateAccelerator:

    Another possible solution is PreTranslateMessage().

    thanks

    is PreTranslateMessage MFC?

    i just read some on the msdn site so this may be a stupid question but, do you know how it works? like, do i have to have that function process actions before going on to send the message or do i just need to load the accelerator or what? lol
    thanks for the help

    Isn't easier like this:
    Code:
    case WM_KEYDOWN:
    {
    switch (wParam)
    {
    case VK_F1:
    {
    if(GetKeyState(VK_SHIFT))
    {
    // you press SHIFT + F1 !!!
    }
    break;
    }
    }
    return TRUE;
    }
