Sam:

It sounds like some other application may have already grabbed control of
"Shift-Esc" for its own purposes, but it is relatively easy to re-map keys in
PCOMMS or Client Access ...

Just click on the little keyboard icon in the toolbar and then change the "Esc"
mapping, for example, so that "Alt-Esc" triggers "Sys Req".

Does that help?

Subject: System Request (Shift+Esc) doesn't work on Win 7

We upgraded several developers today to new HP PCs, going from XP to Win
7. Now the System Request key (Shift+Esc) does not work on Client
Access. I went to Win 7 a couple of months ago and I do not have the
problem. We tried my keyboard map on a new machine and it also failed.
We can map System Request to another key and it works as expected.

We’re at version 7 of client access with service pack SI44594, which is
recent. Personal Communications is version 6.0 and the build (?) is
20111019 S.

This IBM page indicates it might be a hardware issue:

Personal Communication 6.0.4 is a fix:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24031718

But I’ve just found another page that says it was fixed in 5.9.8:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg24032480

Anyone else run into this problem and found a fix?
Thanks, Sam,
