One solution will be make a note of time for which the key is pressed. 
It can be somthing like this

Once you get the WM_KEYDOWM msg make a note of the GetTickCount return 
value.
Next for the same key when you get the WM_KEYUP msg substract the 
current GetTickCount with the previously stored value.

 i.e  duration = currect_tick - last_tick
       Now that when you say __shortkeypress__ and __longkeypress__ it 
is implied that it has something to do with the time duration for which 
it is pressed.
     Now you have to decide what  duration is short for you and what is 
long ...One example case may be

 if ( duration > 300) /* in msec*/
{
    /* its a longer press*/
}
else
{
  /*its a shorter press */
}

There may be better ways to do ..this is one...if you find a better way 
do post me also.
