How to return the ASCII value of Functional Keys

e.g: F11, F2 .... etc.,

[Ankur]

Asc("F11"), Asc("F2")...etc.

Hi ,
Use "Asc" built-in function ;

Code:

For i=1 to 12  
   funct_key= "F"&i
   msgbox Asc(funct_key)
Next

Thank You ankur for reply,

But This is not working.....! As per your code it is returning a ASCII value of "F" not "F11"...., for all Functional keys .. it is returning same value "70" i.e, ASCII value of "F"...

check this

print asc("`") --> 126
print asc("~") --> 96

These two are getting different ascii value for single key in keyboard... bcoz they are special char's not a functioning keys or char's.

I hope for function keys also contain some ASCII Value.

Hello,

This loop returning all 70's...

it is a ascii value of "F"

Hello Ankur...

I was waiting very eagerly for your reply, but I didn't get....
here is the answer... I was already given a hint, but you didn't given any answer.

ASCII Value is available for only characters not for keys...
--> I given that "~,` " these two characters have different ASCII Values but it is single key,

Functional Keys doesn't contain any Characters....

So....! It doesn't Contain ASCII Values...

Thank You...

That's a new thing I learnt today...Thanks for sharing.

I searched for some more info. on ASCII and here is the complete ASCII chart

@bfakruddin: I am curious whether you are seeking answers on this forum or you already know the answers and just want to share your knowledge here.

Sorry Ankur, do not think like that... Once I get the question in my mind I will try in all the ways to clear that... here in your site and also in many sites... not only in sites but also from my side... until unless I found the answer for my question I can't feel good...

Once I got answer for my question I will share... and I will answer for my question in thread. If any body gives exact answer I will try to take additional information from that answer.
Plz do not think that I was already know the answer before posting the thread.

thank you for reply..
