    Hi,

    as I am using Windows Excel 2010 with VBA I need the key "F8" very often.

    Using the Apple Keyboad I have to press "FN+F8" on the keyboard to send "F8" to Excel, which is very disturbing as I have to press two key instead of one and the combination is not handy.

    I tried to change the shortcut in ParallesDesktop/Preferences/Keyboad but there I can not select the "FN" key!?!?

    So how can I change the combination "FN+F8" to "F8" only?

    Any help is welcome!

    Cheers!
    Martin

    Thanks! it works!

    Hi spachner,

    Thanks! That was exactly the solution I was looking for!

    There is one strange thing using "FunctionFlip": When I installed it, it starts automatically and it works fine.

    But it does not appear in System Settings/Other perhaps because I am using a german system, so it does not appear in "SystemEinstellungen/Allgemein"

    To get to the input screen of FunctionFlip I have to install it again.

    So again thanks a lot!

    Martin
