Todd,

The entry can be incorporated in the ROM, and in the case of colonel's (and other ROMs that have removed Cyberon) then that will allow button 5 to function "out of the box".

But, as soon as VC 1.6 is installed that entry will get deleted. So, it will need to be re-created.

Those skilled with cab editing may be able to edit the voice command cab to not delete that entry (I haven't tried that yet), but since VC is commercial software it's not like that modified cab can be distributed. Everyone would have to edit their own.

And I absolutely understand why MSVC deletes that key. If not then pressing the BT button would activate BOTH Cyberon and VC... not a good situation. And I believe only Apache has the problem where button 5 is so intimately connected with the BT button entry. So I'm not sure there's much they could do in the cab to fix it (changing the path to rundll32.exe is admittedly a hack--I really doubt MS would officially implement that).

I'll PM Xyzzy just the same so he's aware of the fix.
