I have scouted through the Data Access newsgroups and Google-d for any
insight, but have not come up with anything.

Is there a specific Windows Registry Setting, or orther setup paramter
needed to enable Windows 2000 Pro Function Keys to work in Data Flex 3.1D
running an application in dfruncon mode?

Appreciate any input, direction, or feedback.

Scott,

Have you tried to run DfCharMap and DfKeyTest? You can find the sources in
your DF31d\Src\Tests folder. They might give you a clue as to what went
wrong.

Scott,

I think you need to update to the 3.2 revision of DataFlex since it is
Windows 2000 tested and compatible (the DFRUNCON runtime) and has new
keyboard drivers. I am quite sure the update will help you further.

You might have a newer keyboard that has a "Function Lock" key, which
depending on it's state, will either make DFx F-keys work or not work.

I've run into this about five times now with my customers.
