• You need to define a Keyboard Accelerator table in your resources, and then make sure you call TranslateAccelerator in your message loop. See MSDN for full details.

  If you're using a framework (eg. MFC) then it will have its own way of wrapping accelerators - you need to look them up in the documentation of the framework you're using.

• You absolutely don't need accelerator and above code has no sense at all.
  Simply use HK. See MSDN and Google groups for basic code (Win32)
