 I can't tell from what you've said whether this is a usb keyboard issue or an iMac 
issue or both.

Possible the Danish keyboard setup is a problem for shortcuts.

Also, while working on this, I dicovered that if you choose Simple Finder in the 
Finder Edit/Preferences, all the keyboard shortcuts are disabled.  

Also I discovered that all the shortcuts work on this Logitech board.  I thought the 
file delete combo wasn't working. Apple(rather alt-option-start)-BACKSPACE will delete 
files.  I was trying it with the Delete key.

Thanks again for your hint.  My mom-in-law's iMac is now humming right along.
