Hi is there some way on Microfocus Reflection Desktop v 16, to map the home key that it goes to the beginning of the field rather than to the "top left"

this is while emulating 3270.

And i would like to map ctrl-home to do what the home key does now.

Sumithar,

You can remap the Home key using the "Tools - Keyboard Mapper" function in Reflection Desktop.  Since there is no "Beginning of Field" send key function available,  you can map the Send Key action of "Backtab" to the Home key action.  This will take the cursor back to the beginning of the current unprotected field.  However, note that if you are already at the beginning of the current unprotected field having entered no data, this action will Backtab back to the previous unprotected field.  You can then map the function for Ctrl Home to the Send key of "Home."  You can find information on mapping keys in Reflection Desktop here.

Thanks,
