As shown in the previous post The Logitech Setpoint software will let you reassign that key and any of the other Hot Keys

I don't have that option like the Solar Keyboard for my Logitech
I decided to give your launcher a go, as a learning exercise :) I was initially going to do a batch file for you, but I've knocked something together in C#:
The code, should you want to inspect it:
This is what it looks like:Code:using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; namespace ConsoleApplication2 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Console.Title = "tom982 URL Launcher ©"; Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.White; Console.Clear(); bool exit = false; Console.WriteLine("---------------------"); Console.WriteLine("| Choose an option: |"); Console.WriteLine("| |"); Console.WriteLine("| 1: Hotmail |"); Console.WriteLine("| 2: GMail |"); Console.WriteLine("| |"); Console.WriteLine("| tom982 © |"); Console.WriteLine("---------------------"); Console.WriteLine(" "); Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Gray; while (!exit) { Console.WriteLine("Please enter your selected Option:"); string options = Console.In.ReadLine(); switch (options) { case "1": Console.WriteLine("You've select Option 1."); System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.hotmail.com"); exit = true; break; case "2": Console.WriteLine("You've select Option 2."); System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.gmail.com"); exit = true; break; default: Console.WriteLine("Error! Please select a valid option."); Console.WriteLine(" "); exit = false; break; } } } } }
As far as I'm aware, this is bug free. If you enter a number that isn't 1 or 2, it'll ask for another. I've attached a copy of it, named OUTLOOK.exe, so that my solution (well, workaround) is here should the above suggestions not work.
Here are the locations of the real OUTLOOK.exe:
Office 2003
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\OUTLOOK.exe
Office 2007
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.EXE
Office 2010
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.exe
NoteIn x64 (64 bit) computers, the program files folder will be Program Files (x86). E.g. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.exe"
You will need to download the attached OUTLOOK.exe file, and copy and paste it into one of the above locations. I don't know which location this keyboard button is launching, so you may have to try all 3.
If you find any bugs or problems in this program, please let me know!

Tom982 - I copied the file to /Office14/ in Windows7 x64 within the ProgramFiles(x86) folder, triggered the keyboard button, nothing happens ?
That's strange. I'll have another look through my code, but I've tested it a lot on my computer and it's worked without a problem. Does it run if you run it by double clicking on it? I.e. is it a fault with the program or with the location?
Try copying it into all of these locations:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office11\OUTLOOK.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\OUTLOOK.exe
In the mean time, I'll test it out on my sister's x64 laptop - mine is only x86.

Have you looked to see if Setpoint software is available for your keyboard yet like the above quote suggested?
I also have a Logitech keyboard and Setpoint allows me to customize all my extra buttons and even allows me to open a website with them.
Do you know what keyboard model it is?
