  I ran into this with the PgUp and PgDn. I thing what you need to do is have 
the manager enter something that no one else would enter or have the manager 
type something in like [Alt]R then test for it.
 
  DIAL  'what ever your message says' vresp vendkey 1
  IF vresp = '[Alt]R' THEN
   do whatever here
  ENDIF

Subject: [RBG7-L] - LASTKEY



In converting some 6.5 code, I had this: 

SET KEYMAP [ALT]R = [ESC] 
DIALOG 'put some stuff here' vresp vendkey 1 
IF LASTKEY(1) = '[ALT]R' THEN 
  .... do some special stuff 


This was to create a "hidden" way for a manager to look at something in the 
middle of a program.  Hitting [Alt[R does close my dialog box, but both 
LASTKEY(1) and LASTKEY(0) return [ESC] rather than [alt]R.   So I can't trap 
the difference between a real ESC and a keymapped ESC.  Can I do this?
