There are a few little gotchas in upgrading to 3.01, so here's the 2.02 way:
 
I'll swap you this for a copy of you ASCII pussy... 8-)
Using keys for this is a piece of cake:
You don't need to anything to your area configs except apply a key to the 
access lines.
The outline below is a bit rough and ready, but you'll soon tidy it up...

-------------------------------MENUS.CTL
(Comment out the normal area change line)
Display_File       Misc\change          Demoted "Area change" 
-------------------------------
-------------------------------CHANGE.MEC
[cls][keyoff]12
 Group 1
 Group 2
 Select group: [menu]12
[choice]1 [keyon]1 [menu_cmd msg_area]
[choice]2 [keyon]2 [menu_cmd msg_area]
[exit]
-------------------------------
-------------------------------MSGAREA.CTL
MsgArea N4
       Access  Normal/1
       
End MsgArea
MsgArea N5
       Access Normal/2
       
End MsgArea
(sorry, I cut these from my 3.01 MSGAREA.CTL, but you'll get the idea)
