I have a Windows program (Visual C++ CLI Type) that displays video in a sub window. When something happen the user makes a note of the event by hitting a button. The problem is that the event involves a number of choices and finding the right button to click is too slow. It would be much better if the user can instantly hit the appropriate key on the keyboard. How can I recognize a key stroke without having an open dialog box and without having to hit Enter?
