Even if the interval is 1, it seems to be possible to hit faster. So the function misses some keys :-( Does anybody know, how to solve this problem?

But my event, that starts at some special keys, runs round about one second (!) So every key, I hit in the meantime, is not realized. It would be nice to have an input-queue. Is this supported by windows? Or do I have to build the queue by myself? Markus Ok, the timer is fast enough and could be about 100ms.

Just use the FIFO principle to add and remove keystrokes from your queue. Building a queue should not be a hard job. Just use the FIFO principle to add and remove keystrokes from your queue.
