Hi All,

I created keylogger. Where if user press key ‘a’ I will replace it with char ‘a’ and so on. Every thing work fine to great deal for english language.

But my client asked me to convert it into multilingual software which support all langauge in OS.

Now if I select arabic or some other language and select same keyboard from OS settings. If I type anything in notepad or MS Word it will show in arabic, even in my application also it will show in Arabic.

But now if user press ‘a’ how can I get its corresponding arablic character.

My email validation, email delivery, login validation all are failed. Because I am comparing english and arabic which will not matched.

If anyone like to help. Thanks in advance.

I guess you are asking the same question in different ways or with different words?

Are you sure all English letters has corresponding Arabic letters? Is so, what's the problem? Make a correspondence and use it.

I asked the question again because I was not much clear in last post and you all concluded its easy.

The thing is here user can change his/her langauge any moment its not fixed.
The corresponding character pressed say a is something else in arabic and I dont know what it is. How to make its correspondence character.

Hey sunder.tinwar,

you can use google traslater for conversion of alphabet.
You can do same operation, but instead of replacing the character in English you can use corresponding Arabic character.some are as follows:
a- a
b- ب
c- ج

I understand the problem, however, are you picking it from a Keypress type of event?
