Thanks. Very logical though not quite so with a Windows keyboard attached. I will leave it intact but move a couple of keys for convenience. I had used keyboard help and mapped out those keys before but the Windows keyboard doesn’t have an equals on the number pad. I thought it was weird to have a previous table and not a next, but now I think I understand the disconnect. What I really want is a touchpad, but I’ve got everything connected to a KVM that I use for both Windows and Mac. no room here for another peripheral that would only be good for one of the 3 machines. I already have to have two mice because my work laptop for some reason refuses to recognize the mouse attached to the KVM.
