I've been using Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Developers for
quite some time, and have gotten used to using the F6 key to compile.

My old computer went up in smoke, and after installing Visual Studio 2005
Team Edition for Software Developers, I notice that the F6 key is not longer
mapped to Rebuild Solution.

Any pointers on how to remap Function keys to specific functions? Any ideas
why this didn't get implemented on install (I installed everything).

Thanks,
Randy

Randy,

Go to 'Tools' >> 'Options'. Select 'Environment' from the tree and select
the 'Keyboard' child node. In the text box titled 'Show commands
containing:' type in rebuild. Choose the rebuild option you want, and you
can then set the keyboard mapping to F6.

Hope this helps,
