YAHOO!!! IT WORKED!!!! Okay, check this out! I popped off my NumLock
key and realized that if I had a cylinder of just the right diameter it would
hold the key in the up position. I used the plastic core from the "adding
machine roll" in my calculator. It consists of two cylinders held together
with fins. I used the inner cylinder with the fins removed and cut a piece
just the right length. I had to cut the cylinder lenghtwise (so it's split and
you could roll it out flat if you wanted to) because the diameter was too
small to fit over the cylinder in the keyboad. Then I slipped the key down on
to the cylinder an voila! The key is frozen in the up position and cannot be
pressed!!! I'm a happy camper! Thanks for the inspiration!
