If you are having problems control (ctrl) clicking in Windows 2000 or Windows XP, this thread provides one tested workaround that is working on a MacBook Pro keyboard.
Remapping the Keyboard:
First, the built in ctrl key cannot be remapped directly, nor do you want to remap it for times when you are without a mouse. Instead, we will use the left Apple (also called the clover leaf or Command) key to the left of the space bar. To use this key, you must install the Windows 2000 resource kit in order to obtain the program ReMapKey.exe.
You can obtain the software from Microsoft here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9d467a69-57ff-4ae7-96ee-b18c4790cffd&displaylang=en
When you run this tool, you will see two keyboards. Drag the ctrl key from the top keyboard to the Windows Key in the bottom keyboard on the left side. Save the changes and allow the system to reboot. When the keyboard is captured, the Command key should now act as the ctrl key. I noticed that no matter what I tried to map to the right Command key it refused to work properly. It either ignored the mapping or became a dead key.
Copy-Cut-Paste the Mac way:
By remapping on the left side you can also perform typical Mac-like copy paste operations without having to remember to switch keys all the time (like in MS VPC). Thankfully, Command-X (cut), Command-V (paste), and Command-C (copy), now work consistently when moving between the Win OS and the Mac OS.
Missing Del key:
If you didn't already know (you probably do) I just thought I'd mention that fn-delete is the same as the del key which, of course, is different from the backspace in Windows.
Ctrl-Alt-Del with the keyboard:
I was unsuccessful in remapping the del key to the right Command key even though this works under a dual boot setup. However, I did find that if I held down the Command key, then the alt (option) key, then the fn key and finally hit delete, it treated it as a ctrl-alt-del keystroke. You must press the fn key after you hold down the other two keys and before you press the delete key in order for this to work.
