re: XP Keyboard remap question

[Bill Troop bill@xxxxxxxx]

Otis, I have found a solution for caps-lock/ctrl, but not yet a solution
for alt and ctrl, for example, or something with
the Dell FN key, or the the start menu key. It would be nice
to be able to access those, and perhaps some others.
As far as I can see, XP does have a registry and it does
have the entries you noted. I would be interested in learning
how to work with these.

Two other questions: in the Xy4 window, I've forgotten how to
get the Edit functions of the window (mark, copy, paste) to
appear in the title bar, and I've forgotten how to get the mouse
to be under Xy4's control.
