I am new to WM6, I am a long time Treo user (boo hiiisss, I know).

After two days with the Tilt, I am really learning alot. One being how much my wife hates the Tilt :D

Anyway, I want to change the application that launches from one (or both) of the soft keys on the Today (home) screen.
I know HOW to change it but I am unsure how to link to the program that I want to launch. The application that I want to launch is on my memory card. I am not sure if there is a shortcut on the phone though..... I am using Flex Mail 2007

Here is the regedit to use, but how to I specify where the app is?
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Home\Keys\112]
@="<SK label>"
"Open"= <handling app>

I am not sure what to add as the handling app... Currently, it has /windows/email.exe
But I want ??? /card/program files/Flex Mail


Thanks in advance!

there is an app that will do all of that for you. Search for SoftKey Changer amazed at what you will find!

I will have a look at that app... thanks!

After seeing just how easy it is to do, I hope this app does more than just change soft keys. I am not even 48 hours into Windows and already figured out allot of the edits that can be done by hand.
