Description

0–7	Scan code (OEM-dependent value). Low byte of high-order word.
8	Extended key, such as a function key or a key on the numeric keypad (1 if it is an extended key, 0 otherwise).
9–10	Not used.
11–12	Used internally by Windows.

Remarks

Called if CWnd has the input focus when the OnSysKeyUp or OnSysKeyDown member functions are called. It specifies the character value of a dead key.

This message-handler member function calls the Default member function. Override this member function in your derived class to handle the WM_SYSDEADCHAR message.
