    Arrow Key

    Hi

    i was wondering if anyone could help me with programming the left arrow key on the keyboard so when the user presses it, it will scroll to the left of all the images that are in the directory, and when it gets to the last file it will loop back to the first picture again?

    Thanks

    VK_LEFT
    There are several ways to check if it's pressed. You can handle the WM_KEYDOWN and WM_KEYUP messages. You could also GetAsyncKeyState(VK_LEFT).
    Don't quote me on that... ...seriously

    I Have used this well VK_RIGHT but when i press the right key it does not go through the image list even tho i have linked it togather (i think), when i press the right key it just moves to a button just like tab would do on any program
