F2 key

[April]

Hi

I am trying to map a key on my keyboard so that it will do the F2 edit
function. Do you know the exe file within Windows that I should use? I am
using a Microsoft Intellitype Pro keyboard.

Thank you

Thanks.

With the software the goes along with the keyboard, I am able to map an EXE
file to a key. I only want to map the F2 so that I can RENAME an item. At
the moment, I can right-click then select RENAME from the menu. Is there an
EXE file related to the RENAME function?

No. When you press F2 while in Explorer (or on the
desktop) then you invoke an internal function of
Windows Explorer.

Within Excel, I am able to use F2, so is there no way that you know of that
I am able to map the RENAME function as a shortcut to a key?

Thank you

Use a standard ps/2 keyboard for starters.

Create a .VBS file with code:


CreateObject("wscript.shell").sendkeys "f2"


And run it whenever you want to send F2 to any application

Good Luck, Ayush.
