You should be able to go in to the *.JKM file for that application, and
paste in the following:
Applications=PutTheNameOfYourScriptHere
Control+s to save, and then Alt+w and down arrow to the script file
again and press enter.
Then compile your script files once more to update the keystroke you
added in the the JKM file.
Hope this helps!

Thanks, I just tried this with JAWS 9 at home and it was successful. I
was confused because I tried all of the things you mentioned at work and
I was sure it was not successful. At work, I use JAWS 7. I tried it
again with JAWS 7 at home and it did not work. Is there a way to do
this with JAWS 7?
Thanks,
Kevin

When you check the check box to allow a key to be mapped, you
should be able to just press your application key on where it ask for a
key stroke, and it should take it. You can also change in the JKM for
jaws key board manager where it shows for example:
Applications=test
The context menu when you hit your application key is the same
menu as if you click your right mouse button on an item. But not sure
if the application key is acting correctly in the program you are trying
to do this in.
Hope this helps!

Subject: [jawsscripts] Mapping Application key to a script
Hello,
I have recently been working with a program where the
application key does not work. I can route the JAWS key to the PC
cursor and right click to get the context menu. I wrote a little script
to do this. The problem is that I would love to map the application key
to this script. There is no way to do this with the keyboard manager,
because if you try to use the key, it actually activates the context
menu. I have gone into the file with notepad, but can not find the
right way to refer to the application key. Is this at all possible?
Thanks,
Kevin
