RE: iSeries Access Shift-Esc not working on Windows 7

I mapped Ctrl-tilde to do it. Close to the same keys but old habits are hard to break. Found a few others here who just got 7 and theirs does not work either. Either Windows 7 is trapping it or some other app we loaded is but it does nothing so acts like nothing is looking for it. Maybe iSeries access 7.1 fixes it

Well that kind of sucks. I use shift escape a lot on different machines
all over the place when troubleshooting user issues.

Yep. Doesn't work for us, either. Win-7 and OS v6.1.

We've re-mapped SysRequest to ALT + PrintScreen for several of us.
Takes a few weeks to get used to, but it's almost 2nd nature now.

I just upgrade to Windows 7 and since doing that iSeries Access 6.1
does not see Shift-Esc as a System Request. It does nothing. I can
right-click and select Sys Req and get the request line. Has anyone
else seen this issue? I'm thinking Windows is trapping Shift-Esc and
not letting iSeries Access see it.
