I always enjoy a challenge... hehe.
Although targeted towards VB rather than RB, this page contains most/
all of the declares for the Win32 environment you need to capture
keyDown events for keys which do not generate ASCII codes.

You may have to put this into a background thread which keeps
scanning the keyboard for input, unless you come up with a trigger
mechanism somehow. Maybe Win32 has an AppNotify eventHandler you can
hook, but I couldn't find out anything about it.

On Windows, The PrintScreen key doesn't generate a KeyDown event at

FWIW you can detect individual function key presses by testing
keyboard.asynckeydown in KeyDown events, and you could probably
extend this to test for the print screen key, which I believe is F16
(?) on windows.
Therefore if you put this in your keydown event it should capture it
