    Thank you, I will try that. I am using an old Mac keyboard, the transparent and white one that shipped with the old Power Macs, and it works beautifully with OS X and Windows. ButI want to get the newer aluminum keyboard, because it has such a great tactile feel to it. On the old plastic keyboards, the help key equals the Insert key when you are running Windows through Boot Camp. No problem. The help key code is identical to that of the Insert key on a PC keyboard. I will try one of the new keyboards and see if I can get the fn key to do Insert.
