 You can go in and re-assign most of the keypad keys, but WP won't
 let you re-assign 5 or 7 on the keypad so it doesn't help much:
 
 File Menu::Preferences::Keyboards::Characters
 
 then click on 1, 2, etc. and hit the numeric keypad key to which
 you want to assign the chars "1", "2", ...
 
 but as I said above it doesn't work for keypad 5 & 7 so its of
 little use.
 
 Andy.
