Hi,
I have a simple program that lets you press a key and it displays
the ASCII number for the key plus the Control key, Option key,
Command key, or Shift key if one of them is also pressed. I would
like to use the command Keyboard.keyname(keycode) to give the
special names some keys have, but I cannot get it to work.
For eample: if I press $, the $ is displayed in the input field,
36 is the ASCII code, Shift key is displayed, but the field for
keyname displays 'Return' when keycode is the ASCII value of the
key pressed.
Obviously I am doing something wrong, but I have no clue what that
is. Could someone please give me a hint?
Thanks,

KeyCode and Ascii value is not the same (I think)
Correct. Keyname requires the Keycode which is read by the Keyboard
Object or Module usually by reading the Keyboard.AsyncKeyDown Property
Keyboard.Keyname Method
Returns a String. The string is the name of the keycode passed.
, If I remember correct the Keycodes is available in the User Guide
page 387...
That's the picture of the keyboards used in some locations. It's a
bit dated as well.
