Summary: The ToUnicodeEx API

!!!!C# Signature:
 [DllImport("user32.dll")]
 static extern int ToUnicodeEx(uint wVirtKey, uint wScanCode, byte []
   lpKeyState, [Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] StringBuilder pwszBuff,
   int cchBuff, uint wFlags, IntPtr dwhkl);
!!!!User-Defined Types:
None.

!!!!Notes:
Convert a ASCI Character into Unicode Character with the Keyboard Layout
!!!!Tips & Tricks:
Please add some!

!!!!Sample Code:

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
    static extern int ToUnicodeEx(uint wVirtKey, uint wScanCode, byte [] lpKeyState, [Out, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] System.Text.StringBuilder pwszBuff, int cchBuff, uint wFlags, IntPtr dwhkl);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
    static extern bool GetKeyboardState(byte [] lpKeyState);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
    static extern uint MapVirtualKey(uint uCode, uint uMapType);

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
    static extern IntPtr GetKeyboardLayout(uint idThread);

public static string VKCodeToUnicode(uint VKCode)
    {
        System.Text.StringBuilder sbString = new System.Text.StringBuilder();

byte[] bKeyState  = new byte[256];
        bool bKeyStateStatus = GetKeyboardState(bKeyState);
        if (!bKeyStateStatus)
            return "";
        uint lScanCode = MapVirtualKey(VKCode,0);
        IntPtr HKL = GetKeyboardLayout(0);

ToUnicodeEx(VKCode, lScanCode, bKeyState, sbString, (int)5, (uint)0, HKL);
        return sbString.ToString();
    }
