sleep key command for MS wireless 6000 keyboard

Posted: 05-14-2007, 02:05 PM
I am using Vista ultimate. I have a MS laser 6000 wireless keyboard. This
keyboard does not have a sleep key. Where can I find the sleep command in
vista so that I can assign it to a keyboard key?

I used an utility called WIXMO (http://www.grc.com/wizmo/wizmo.htm). I
reassigned the logoff button to sleep using this command:
C:\Program Files\Utility\wizmo.exe" standby

The driver for the Microsoft keyboard 6000 allow you to reassign some keys.
In the Control Panel, select Keyboard. There is a Tab name Key Settings.
This is where you reassign the keys.

I know how to change the key assignments. There isn't a sleep assignment
for this keyboard. Where can I find a sleep function to assign to a
keyboard key?

Thanks
