Don Doty,

As you suspected, you will need to remap the PC bracket keys, as the brackets are more of  a special (apl) kind of character on the host side.

Here are some steps for that action.

 - From the EXTRA! session, select the Options\Settings\Keyboard Maps.

- Edit the default map, EXTRA! Office (101 Key).ekm.

- Double-click the cent key and change the properties.

- Under Commands highlight Send Special Keys.

- Under Keystrokes select the select the left bracket (will need to scroll down the list).

- Click OK. Should now see the left bracket mapped to what was the cent key.

- Repeat this process for the right bracket on the "|" key.

- Save the modified keyboard map.

Best Regards,

Ok, I might not have explained this correctly.  It's when I hit the [ bracket key, I want it show and send a [ bracket  on the screen, not the cent sign.  How do I ensure to actually send a [ bracket?  Key mappings shows that a [ bracket is correctly doing a "send keys" of a [ bracket, but it shows up as a cent sign.

Don Doty,

If you have the keyboard mapping correctly changed to send the [ then when you type it, I would expect the screen to show a [. 

Pressing the keys appears as

If you find the data stream is still sending the other data to the host.  There could be an issue with the terminal type configuration on the host.  This would not be something that we could work through in the community as we would need network protocol traces to ensure the data stream is sending and receiving the correctly decoded information.  If you have active maintenance you can contact us at 800-688-3270 or email Support2@microfocus.com.
