You can not use messages, because you would fall back into the hook thus 
creating an endless loop.
You should map the whole keyboard and xlat them into YOUR keyboad lay 
out ( do it just once when the hook is installed) and look up from the hook.
The thins you need are the win32 api GetKeyboardstate and 
SetKeyboardstate. These use very easy to handle arrays so it isnt 
difficult at all
