Check Caps Lock and Num Lock

[cismarel]

But if i want check the caps and num lock in a windows form application?

[BlaineSch]

So if thats the code.. it is possible to change the value?

Console.CapsLock = false;

is this value a copy of the value or does it really change if caps lock is on?

Quick Answer: Can't edit.
Long Answer provided by the compiler itself:
Property or indexer 'System.Console.CapsLock' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only

i have the same question.

i have the same question.

For those who want to use this in a windows form, Here's an example of how:

MessageBox.Show(Control.IsKeyLocked(Keys.CapsLock).ToString());

Basically, Control.IsKeyLocked(Keys.Capslock) return a true or false.
Correct syntax is such:

public static bool IsKeyLocked(
    Keys keyVal
)

keyVal being the key you want checked

The way I used it:

Control.IsKeyLocked(Keys.<key>);

all are the same,but there are some coding strategies to use to minimize runtime,so i vote for both as they contain the qualities i consider
