If you mean something like changing the control key with the caps lock
key the answer is ... of course. That's the whole purpose behind the
anykey (at least for me). Drives my wife crazy..but that's okay.
The process is very simple...hit 'remap' press the key you want it to
'perform' then press the key where you want to hit it. To set the key
back to original setting simply press remap, then press the key
twice..this will set it back the original key. There is also a key
combination to set all the keys back to default, which is good for
when my 3 year old hits remap then goes on her little adventure :)
You can also 'load' certain key mappings for different
applications...very cool.
hope this answers your question and i did not assume too little.
