I'm trying to make an AHK script for my netbook to get around having to use two hands to do Page Down, Page Up, Home & End. (these are Fn keys on top of the cursor keys on my netbook).

I tried to create something like the below:

^!{Down}::
send {PgDn}
return

But it doesn't recognize the {Down} part... when I run it, is says that is not a valid key (I'm trying to test & run it on my full size PC).

How do I make a SPECIAL key (i..e cursor down) a key to be used to trigger a script?

when defining it with ::, leave out the {}

Many thanks!

For anyone else that would like my little script, here it is (I switched over to using just the Alt key instead of Ctrl+Alt):


All of the below can be placed in a single file -> NetKeys.ahk

This allows me to to the ALT key in combination with the cursor keys to achieve the same result as if I used the special laptop Fn key (which is all the way on the other side of the keyboard).
