So I'd like to assign a simple macro to ctrl+shift+numpad1. This is what I have:

Code:
Application.OnKey "^+{97}", "YellowHighlight" 'ctrl+numpad1

The problem is my keyboard defaults to 'end' and doesn't execute the script. Which I think is because 'end' is the default shortcut built into windows 7. I'm running into the same problem with all the numpad keys, using shift+ctrl they all default to arrow/pgup/pgdo/or nothing happens. Note: numpad on or off doesn't help, would like to keep both ctrl+shift.

Is there any work-around for this in vb or easy fix under windows settings? Or do I have to go into the registry?
