i have a problem with my right pinky finger that is not curable via surgery. so, i need to slightly re-map the keyboard so when i type a "[" the computer thinks i typed a "p". i would think that windows would allow me to make the change but i can't find a way to do that. i also thought that there might be a shareware program to do the same thing, but again i can't find one easily.
any ideas?
thx

thanks. i downloaded both programs but since i don't have a ms keyboard, i installed only the creator pgm. it was easy to create a new layout, but confusing on how to apply the new one, and there seems to be some quirks once i figured out how to apply it (firefox does not seems to recognize the revised layout) ... i'll keep the lounge uptodate as i test and try it out
thanks again for the quick answer
