Andy,

I don't really know what I'm doing either, so this might not be best
practice, but on the main Code/400 screen click on Options, then select
Profiles, then User Preferences.  This takes you to your Profile.lx
file.  I think this is run every time you start Code.  You can override
key assignments here, create menus etc.  Mine looks like:

/********************************************************************/
/*                                                                  */
/* Everything below the end key defaults line is customised.        */
/*                                                                  */
/* Last changed 16Mar99                                             */

A lot of the additions have come from this forum.  There's examples of
macros (anything with the extension LX) in the MACROS directory off the
main WDT directory, and the help is pretty good.  If you want a
blow-by-blow description of what each line does, let me know.

There are language-specific equivalents to profile.lx as well, if you
only want changes to apply when you're editing RPG source for example.

Violaine Batthish has a book on Code/400 that may be helpful (I haven't
seen it).

Cheers
Robin
