RE: DISABLE F1

On Monday 03 April 2006 08:45 pm, Wil.C had this to say in
microsoft.public.windowsxp.general:

Some very funny answers... some thoughtfull...

The reason why they want to disable this key (F1) is because many of these
customers are constantly typing and editing. For instance, some of them
are working on huge/large spreadsheets and constantly pressing the F2 key
to edit
the content of a very large cell. It's way faster to use the keyboard to
edit that clicking for the specific changes they need (and in general is
fast to use the keyboard than the mouse anyways).
The problem is that after a while, when attempting to press the F2 to edit
a excel cell location, by accident they press the F1 key and of course the
help
comes up. They didn't need help but now closing the help slowes them
down. And if you think that they are editing 3 to 5 hundred cells per
work***, if they only press the F1 key 50 times by accident that's a lot
of wasted time.

Since you asked -- here's the reason. Don't ask what type of work***
they are changing, just know that they are people out there doing it...

Thanks,
Wil.

Well then just pop off the F1 key. Easy to do and that will stop the
Wintards from hitting it.
