I'll check out that utility in the next day or so. I have a couple of
multimedia keyboards which do exactly what you outline and do use it with
that Win 7 pc.
I ultimately want a solution that is not keyboard dependent and that would
work in any win7 situation.

I have such a setup with our xp pcs which control volume using several
components including a simple Autohotkey script, The old venerable Winkey
Hotkey manager and Quickmix which allows me to set up 6 profiles which I
control volume with a series of hotkeys.
Quickmix, from what I can tell from compatability tests, will not work in
the Win 7 Home Premium environment.

I'll check out that utility in the near term, and Bruce has offered
another possible suggestion.
And I just uncovered a small Autohotkey macro which raises and lowers Win7
volume using the combos of "win+up-arrow" and "win+down-arrow".
Those of you who use Autohotkey well know, of course, that those keys can
easily be changed to virtually anything.

Once again, thanks; and I am beginning to see some possibilities of
eventually working around this issue.
