Hi Robert. I did use Sharp keys to get an insert and application key in fusion as Jaws needs it as I'm using windows 7 for some window things. I did have help to do it.
You need to download the sharp key program, open it, it will not install. You then have two boxes. In the first you pick the key you want to change. In the second, you find the key you want to use from a list and then you have to nd write it to the registry as that's a button. Hope that helps. Kawal.
