Usage Note 1733: The macro statement %KEYDEF is obsolete
Due to internal code changes within the SAS System, starting with
Version 7 %KEYDEF will no longer be available. No error message is
issued but the function key's value does not change when assigned a new
value with %KEYDEF. Starting in Version 8 a note is generated that
states:
Note: %KEYDEF is obsolete in this version of the SAS System.
The following note is also generated:
Note: Fx set to "command".
This note is incorrect since the function key was not set. This note
will be removed starting in release 8.2.
Key definitions can be modified by using the KEYS window or by using a
DM statement with the KEYDEF command. For example, to set SHIFT F2 to
clear the active window, issue the following statement.
DM "KEYDEF 'SHF F2' CLEAR";
