How can I differentiate between the right and left shiftkey?

Question

C# give in the KeyDown-event the following keyword: Keys There you can find all keyboard-keys and also RShiftKey & LShiftKey! The e.KeyValue for the right one is 160 and left 161. But how can I differentiate between this keys? My C# recognize only both of them and shows me only the e.KeyValue of 16! :( On the other Hand: 16 is contains 160 and 161... - any idea?

Ahh... ...but the KeyPress event starts only if a alphanumeric key was been hit. By KeyDownEvent the shiftkey only used as modifier! Last but not least: Modifiers are not available by the KeyPress event. :( But thank you

if ( e.KeyChar == (char) 160 ) { MessageBox.Show(Right Shift); } else if ( e.KeyChar == (char) 161 ) { MessageBox.Show(Left Shift); }
