Hi Carol,
I wrote the app for your brother and I figured I'd just send it along.
Since equals is where his NumLock should be, I made the default hotkey to

Hi Carol,
I could send you a Window-Eyes app which allows you to define a hotkey to
toggle the NumLock.

Why not just use autohotkey to define one of the keys to perform this
function. I just bought an hp laptop not to long ago. It does not have an

Hi list,
I continue to have problems with Office 2007 and WE 9.1 on a Dell laptop
running Win 7.
I now notice that I have lost my volume control. Both my laptop and
keyboard commands are null and void.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance to any responders.
