Keeping in mind point 1 above, I notice that in the Vista emulator it is quite possible to remap the Scroll Lock key to either local or datastream functions. For example I mapped Scroll Lock to PF8, and CTRL-Scroll Lock to PF7, and they scroll up and down nicely in XEDIT. The Scroll Lock keyboard light toggles with eash press, but with no apparent unwanted effect. So I don't think this is a fundamental Windows thing. Since PCOM also works on OS/2, perhaps it's the remnants of an attempt at compatibility? Tony H.
