hi,

1) I want to get the extended key codes from the numeric key pad if they 
are 1..9 but not if they are up, down, etc.  I am assuming that windows 
returns VK_NUMERIC8 regardless of the numlock state.
How do you detect if the numlock key is down?

2)I also want to detect all the key like '~', '^' and '"'.  The ascii 
table and the virtual key table seem to overlap in these areas.  What is 
  a way that i can do this (preferably as a set, i happen to editing 
grids.pas for BCB6)?

Thanks,
Charlie
