Joe,
This is exactly what I did for the keys that I did define. The problem is that when I press
some of the 'extended' (I suppose DEC only) keys, no key code is generated - the 'SET KEY'
simply waits until I hit another key that it does recognize. The keyboards work like a charm
under Windoze where it has it's own DLL, but for the life of me I can't get a response under
DOS.
Thanks for the suggestion though. Any other ideas?
