GOAL:
How to disable a Function key for the Windows GUI client
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows
OpenEdge Category: Configuration
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
FIX:
The Function Key may be disabled by refining it's Key Function or Function Key mapping .
To disable a Function key for a Windows GUI client do the following:
To redefine Function Key Mapping
1. Set the -basekey "INI" -ininame <path-to-inifile> parameters for the Windows client to use the ini file
2. Add section name to the ini file if it is not there.
[Keys]
3. Set the function key in question to an undefined Key Function
ie: CLEAR under the Windows graphical interface column has no value, therefore, setting F2 to CLEAR will do nothing.
CLEAR=F2
Second Method
To Redefine a Function Key for the Key Function do the following:
1. Determine the Function Key's Key Function
ie: F2 = GO
2. Add section name to the ini file if it is not there.
[Keys]
3. Redefine the Function Key to one other than F2.
ie:
GO=F13
or
GO=ALT-CTRL-p
