    sleep key command for MS wireless 6000 keyboard

    I am using Vista ultimate. I have a MS laser 6000 wireless keyboard. This
    keyboard does not have a sleep key. Where can I find the sleep command in
    vista so that I can assign it to a keyboard key?

    I used an utility called WIXMO (http://www.grc.com/wizmo/wizmo.htm). I
    reassigned the logoff button to sleep using this command:
    C:\Program Files\Utility\wizmo.exe" standby

    The driver for the Microsoft keyboard 6000 allow you to reassign some keys.
    In the Control Panel, select Keyboard. There is a Tab name Key Settings.
    This is where you reassign the keys.

    I know how to change the key assignments. There isn't a sleep assignment
    for this keyboard. Where can I find a sleep function to assign to a
    keyboard key?

    Thanks
