Very good! :-)


You're welcome. Glad to help.


In the source code, I saw it adds some scancodes to the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout.
Now the keys are correctly mapped. :-)

But what you describe sounds very odd, and I would want to find out
why it was happening before I tried reversing it with software. What
are your settings in Control Panel | Regional and Language Options |
Keyboards and Languages? Perhaps you are have it set for a language
that doesn't match the physical keyboard.

My settings should be good for my italian keyboard: "Italiano (Italia) -
Italiano".


OK, but did you check to see how it was set?


Many thanks
