WM_CHAR does not trigger

Do any other window messages get handled by your switch statement?

Here is the whole thing:

Make sure that the message loop calls TranslateMessage before it calls DispatchMessage.

Edit:

MSG msg;

while(GetMessage(&msg,0,0,0))
{
TranslateMessage(&msg); // <- Here
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}

lol, I just noticed the "moo" string.
