It's good to be an outcast, you don't need to explain what you do, you just do it and say you don't belong there.

Hello Akura

You can use DIK_CAPSLOCK or DIK_CAPITAL like this:

char keys[256];
LPDIRECTINPUTDEVICE pKeyb; // I suggest that DI and DID are already properly initialized

pKeyb->GetDeviceState(sizeof(keys), keys);
if (keys[DIK_CAPSLOCK] & 0x80)
{
// CAPS LOCK is pressed
}
