Jules,

Most laptops have a way of overlaying the numeric keypad over the right hand
letter keys. Usually you hold some Fn or Function shift key and click on
U-8-O-K for the arrow keys. It's an extra key to hold down, but it should
work. (I'll check my Toshiba later.)

BTW, does that lat/long put you in Illinois? I'm in Gurnee.

  Subject: [skychart-discussion] Help with using left arrow


  My laptop computer that I use with CDC in the field has a broken left
  arrow key that is used to move the chart east on the screen.  How can I
  replace that key with another so that I don't have to go to the "move"
  menu and use several strokes to move the chart.

  No mouse in the field with my setup.

  Great program, I use it almost every day, and with every night observing
  session, but I do not want to have to buy another computer for astronomy
  use.
