OS/2

= SUMMARY =

In OS/2 protected mode, the /K switch is ignored when starting Word because OS/2 gives an application the same information concerning keyboards, regardless of the keyboard that is connected to the computer.

The /K switch disables the extended-function keys if Word is run in the DOS 3.x box under OS/2. Under DOS, using the /K switch when starting Word normally disables the extended-function keys.
