Hi Rick,
I think you will find that the data is not there until the key is released,
only a guess.
Look at my Uninstall program, and the addition to my Trek game. In both
.vbs files I watch for the key down and connect for the key up process. I think
you will find that data and such is not ready until the key processed up
happens.

Subject: KeyProcessedUp and KeyProcessedDown Events
Hi Guys:
In my external script while testing against the Target App vb.net 2010
Express:
The KeyProcessedDown event fires the target subroutine specified in the
AddressOf parameter.
The KeyProcessedUp does not.
Is the functionallity of these keys dependent on whether the Target
Application being scripted specifies the KeyUp or KeyDown Methods in the source
code or are the WE versions suppose to execute upon actual user interaction
with the Keyboard regardless of whether the programmer used the KeyDown or
KeyUp or KeyPressed methods?
Also:
When I do not use the OnKeyProcessedDown event
handlers the screen goes dark when I press Shift-Escape to close the Solution
Explorer.
The screen does not go dark when I cllose the Solution Explorer while using
the OnKeyProcessedDown Event Handler.
The OnKeyProcessedUp Event handler does not fire in any case - thus the first
question.
If I understand these events they should not impact the operation of the
Target Application being scripted so the screen should still go dark when the
Shift-Escape keys are pressed without doing any handling of passing keys
through to it, or am I wrong on that?
