Is there a function to switch between (Scancode) to (ASCII or CHR$)?

If there is no answer to that, then how can I determine what key was pressed with the following code:



Please do not refer me to use things such as Inkey$, I know this function, but to be able to use the KEYSTATE function, I need to know conversions of SCANCODES to CHR$ before... (or similar conversions)

Help!!! Thanks in advance...!

Ah crap, this just isn't logical, it's impossible to do that (I think)... ,

Explaination:

If you press the letter "q" of the keyboard and your keyboard is set in "qwerty" then it would output a "q", but if it's "azerty" it would ouput a "a", however, returning the same scancode... (Just guesses, but still, by logic...)

So instead, I'd want to know the value of the button being pressed and the scancode with the same keypress...

I think I need pointers on that because:



that code simply returns 1 of the two functions...

still needs heeeeelp
