Autokeys Not Fuctuioning

[Harold]

I have tested the Autokeys capabilities on my machine and another machine.
Same mdb, but the mdb on my machine does not invoke the function from the
Autokeys Macro. The other machine works as expected.

I am pretty sure it has to do with soemthing I have done in the past to the
ChangeProperties or AllowBypass but I acannot isolate what flag I have set.
Does anyone have any thoughts.

Basically I want when the user presses F1 to run some code but not popup the
Access/Micorosft Help window.

I know of no setting(s) in StartUp that would prevent this from working. You
don't mention what version(s) of Access are involved here, but with 2003 you
have to explicitly set security to allow macros to be used, which could
possibly be the cause of your troubles. But I have to tell you, using <F1>
for anything other than Access Help is really a horrendous mistake! Denying
your users the ability to open Access Help is simply not done.

Both machine have Access 2003 loaded. My machine does not run the macro. It
just pops up help. The other machine runs the macro (its function) as
expected.
I do hear what you are saying but the users of this app need the user
documentation not Access Help. I feel the intuitive key code to press for
help remains F1.

Something is different and I have no clue.
