Actually, I believe the ACCESSKEY is the only field, except that is only in the database for the toolbar. If you want to remove the ACCESSKEY value from other buttons, you have to modify the XML. For example, export the LIBRARY.xml file from application designer and search for ‘accesskey’. You will see a bunch of hyperlinks with shortcuts associated with them. You might have to do this for each application.

ACCESSKEY is the only one I know of.

I agree that these are very helpful in most environments. However, I am working on a Maximo 7 project in Japan and the customer would like to disable ALL keyboard shortcuts that include Ctrl+ or Alt+. Is there an easy way to do this in Maximo 7? In Maximo 5.2, there was an ACCESSKEY column in the SIGOPTION table that controlled this type of functionality. I see that MAXMENU.ACCESSKEY is where I can disable the Toolbar Buttons, but where do I find all the others?

Thank you for your help. Personally, I love the shortcuts in Maximo.
