Button Re-Mapping

How do I re-map the soft key text messaging button? I want to change it to my email button and then make the envelope button my text messaging button. How can this be done?

Re: Button Re-Mapping

Read page 105 of your manual to learn how to remap the envelope button. I believe you want to reassign the messaging button to messaging.

I'm not sure how to reassign the messaging soft key on the today screen. You may need a hack or a third party solution that modifies your today screen.

good luck.

Re: Button Re-Mapping

Hey I found this registry edit on this forum:
Change the application launched by Today screen Soft Keys

To change the application launched by the Today screen Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)

To change the title of the Left soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\(Default) = Calendar (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

To change the application launched by the Today screen Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\Open = "\Windows\Calendar.exe" (REG_SZ string, including quotes)

To change the title of the Right soft key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113\(Default) = "Calendar" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

Note that 113 normally doesn't exist by default, and probably needs to be created Also note that there is at least 1 application that allows you to set these through a GUI, developed by FdcSoft called SoftKeyAppletEx
I haven't tried it on my Treo. Let us know if it works for you.

Good Luck.
Rockey
