In the VkKeyScan(), it sais you can get the shift state from the high order byte.
vk=VkKeyScan(x);
now vk holds the key code for x.(this works fine)
How do I retrieve the shift status(high-order byte)?

[Dark Byte]

vk holds both the shiftkey state and the keycode
to get the key code use
keycode = vk & 0xff;

to get the shift status use:
shiftstate = vk >> 8;

Thanks! I'd never find this with google

*Edit:*
Just to be sure, the bitshift right 8 was because a byte has a size of 8, right?
Maybe im wrong :/

[Dark Byte]

yes, that way the high byte becomes the low byte and can you just work with it like that

Cool
