Hi Tom,

If there weren't any alternatives for solving the problem (executing a macro
with a keyboard shortcut), then I would have continued to work on the problem
with you. But given there are hundreds of possible keyboard combinations, the
risk of causing you damage was too high compared to the gain.

Thank you for the information. You were certainly a lot more forthcoming
than Microsoft when I went to them with this problem. They didn't even
allude to the possibility of doing it at all.

And no, I'm certainly not in HR, nor would I ever care to be. I'm a lousy
nurse / handholder and am quite aware of it :-) My strength is in looking at
problems and seeing possible solutions, with a general disregard of any
emotions or feelings involved.

Then I apologize for my earlier statement. I've implemented a third-party
solution using a program which will cheerfully redefine just about any key
on the keyboard and can be made to act on specific applications only. F1 is
certainly universally recognized as a help function in Windows.

Sorry for ruffling some feathers here, and I'm glad yours weren't among
them. :-)



Tom
