I have a program that uses the F2 key for shortcuts. So if you type in, say, tcw and hit F2, it'll change that to "telephone conference with." Cool. When I'm in a hurry, I sometimes mash the F2 button, and since the program is web-based, and we're using internet explorer, I get the F1 button by mistake. That brings up the dreaded HELP screen.
I do not need the help screen. I do not want the help screen. I don't want the F1 key to do anything. But I can't disable it without complex software, so I have to just not hit the F1 key. This isn't a good solution.
Yesterday, I saw a suggestion to pry off the offending key with a letter opener.
So this, I did. Pried the sucker off and left it on my desk. In case someone needs the F1 key, it's right here. Like I'm going to use it for something? Yeah right.
