Why is result never == 13 in the following code?

Code:

---

STRING* strChatInputText;

---

result = inkey(strChatInputText);
	
if(result==13)
{
AddMessage(strChatInputText);	
} 
 

---

I only want to run AddMessage on an Enter. Running a watch on result and it always has a different value?

Yeah I had a hard time with the same..It was returning some weird 5 digit
values.To fix this,just dont use result = inkey(strChatInputText);
Just use inkey(strChatInputText);
The result var is automatically set to the key code after that.So your code should look like :-

inkey(strChatInputText);

if(result==13)
{
AddMessage(strChatInputText);
}

That solved it.

Cheers zazang. I was getting that 5 digit code, seemed to be related the the text entered, some kind of ASCII thing maybe?

I think its some kind of a handle but not sure.
