Well that didn't come out quite the way I intended. So let's try the quote thingy. Well it's not perfect but copy and paste and then clean it up a little.

But remember scancodes are country specific. The letter Q on a French keyboard is different to an English one, etc etc etc.

alanuk - I assume that list is a UK keyboard?

so you if you want that an A is pressed you'd better check
if upper$(inkey$())="A"

but when you want to control the player by using asdw (or qsdz in azerty) you'd better use scancodes (kepress)

That's one way to do it. Better to use keystate and force them to define the keys before play (because the above technique won't detect multiple key presses, keystate will). In DBPro the entry buffer is the correct way to get input.

Cheers,

Rich

Yes Rich, it is for a UK keyboard, I forgot to mention that.

I just ran a simple proggy and pressed every key in sight!!

Now I have a printout which is very useful.

isn't there a certain system in it?
for example, on a TI-81 calculator, scancodes are built up by two figures: the row and the colum number
