OK when pressing ALT-F9 or ALTF10, I wakes up WINKEY ( I think ??) and I 
can adjust the keyer speed on the screen but nothing is really happening 
with the keyer as the actual speed does not change with the paddle and I 
can not send any text from the window or with the function keys???

As an earlier poster pointed out winkey 3.1 does not work with DX4WIN 9.03

No one answered my query if they had contacted DX4WIN  Support and 
gotten a reply so I will send Jim an email tonight
