I don't know how to do it in XP, but in Xubuntu I lapped that key (the windows_L) to Multi_key in my .Xmodmap.
From the many threads here, it looks like this is really an issue in oo? Or is that a hasty conclusion?

It does *not* give me an acute accent *above* an "e" which is what is required. Also, I can get the apostrophe by simply hitting the apostrophe key (immediately to the right of the colon/semi-colon key), so the <windows> key has no effect whatsoever. And yes, I do have e-acute available within OO. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected] ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a PS3 game guru.
