That is a good question indeed. But we're kind of getting away from
the original question, here. Never mind the fact that you're more
likely to find an answer on a windows related list.

Here's the next question. Are the keys we refer to as "windows keys" - control+c, control+x, control+a, and so on - truly keys in the Windows operating system, or are they conventions programs follow?

You're right Bruce. If the control key is embedded in the Jaws source code, there's no way to change it, unless an intercept program is used by the user to monitor key presses in order to reassign their functions. Screen Readers and Magnifiers do just that. So, the technology is right there, but it's still behind closed doors. A System Wide Keystroke Table will certainly help thousands and thousands of users.--

That wouldn't help in what he's trying to do. What he wants to do is to have the control key not silence JAWS, and I don't think this can be done.
