    Why not create a simple .reg file, to make use of the Windoze Scan Code Mapper to re-map one of your keys to Prt Scr?

    The link in post #12 explains how this can be achieved and gives two different examples, one of which is to re-map a key to another use.
    It is also possible to add a key not generally available on a keyboard or to remove a key that is never used. The following example shows the value stored in Scancode Map to remove the right CTRL key and change the functionality of the right ALT key to work as a mute key.

    Just transpose the key code values as you require them.

    :cool:
