    Hello,

    Where does one find information in the SW Help file for a list of
    files that need to be copied to a shared location if you want everyone
    to "point" to the same files.

    Specifically, I have a set of hotkeys I want everyone to use. I've set
    them up on one computer and now want to copy/point users to this
    common file. What is the file name and where is it pointed.

    How are other people setting up SW to be used in multi-seat/user
    environments?

    Does the documentation exist or am I just looking in the wrong places?

  2. When you talk about accessing a hotkeys file, that's old stuff. Starting
    some time ago the hotkeys are now stored in the registry. What I do here is
    maintain a Copy Settings Wizard file on our network, and if I change
    something that is significant, I usually will send out an email describing
    the change. Then the user has the option of reloading my standard file, or
    making the change manually. Their decision. Or they ignore me and we talk
    about it later when I have to come help with the problem. :-0

    The old hotkeys file was a .cus file.
