Hi Tom,
I'm sorry, but I still don't understand you.
In that case, I think it would be best if you do NOT try to
reprogram the F1 key. When you poke that deeply into things
that aren't meant to be changed, you have to understand
what you're doing, and how to correct any problems that
might crop up. F1 is dedicated across all Windows apps to
calling up Help, which is why it's locked down so tightly.
There are so many other keyboard combinations available, it
would be best to use one of them, even if, at the moment,
you don't think it will be as "comfortable" to use as F1.
