Since I don't get out much, this may be a little late, however...

I always used the table in the back of the Basic manual I 
received with my PC. I have two or three of these little green books
kicking around the house now.

I believe (from checking my Norton Guides Turbo C++ Database] that
the scancode is 00+6C or NULL+108. So check for a NULL, if it is, check
for 108. If you get 108, you have an Alt-F5 (that's assuming I have my
information correct. It sounds right but without testing... :).
