My windows system is down with hardware problems so I cannot access
MS 2.0 to get the specific keystrokes for you but I DO know that you
have over-written the original keycode info with your macro and now
have erased that macro leaving the DEL key as a 'do-nothing' key.
This would happen in any word-processor editor (QEDIT comes to mind)
that has programmable keys.  You should avoid choosing a 'normal'
keystroke for a macro 'hot-key'.  It's just not worth the trouble of
losing the key and having to reset it when you are finished?
A delete key MIGHT be just a space and a control-H key combination to
overwrite using the space key and the control-H to backup and put the
cursor where the space is?  Not sure what MS 2.0 uses in the standard
keycode definition?
