How to solve this

[wardhan]

Dear Friends
I want to display content to output display only after key down event i.e. if a particular key a pressed. WM_PAINT message is always the last message and it can post into the message queue after once InvalidateRect is executed.
But I am unable to get the result. So please help me in getting the solution.
Another thing how can we keep track of a particular event consecutively i.e. next, next and next. Can we use a variable with function keys like VK_Fi.

So please give me the answer as soon as possible and help me.

For that I shall ever be grateful to all of you.
Thanking you in advance
Binay Wardhan

PreTranslateMessage would be the way to go.

If the event is WM_KEYDOWN you get the data and compare it to your key value. if it is your key then your done otherwise call up to PreTranslateMessage in the parent.
