"Disabling F1 Key" - Not Working

[jacksonbilly]

Hi to all.

I have added to the acad.mns file the code:
[INTERNAL+"F1"]'_redraw

Over half the computers in our domain seems to except this code. The F1 key is disabled afterwords.

Four PCs do not except this code. All of the machines are running AutoDesk Map 5 except for a few who are running AutoCAD 2005 and one machine is running AutoCAD 2002. Three of the four machines that our not working are Map5 and one of the four is a 2005 (And the 2005 PC worked until it was rebooted). All the machines are running XP Pro w/ SP2.

I have added the code to the ACAD.mnu file, as well. I have also verified the path AutoCAD is using in the OPTIONS dialog box and all seems to be correct.

Thanks to any advice.

Sincerely,

George Jackson

If there are partial menus loaded and they have accelerators defined, those definitions will override what is in "acad.mns".

Dunno, maybe this will help?
