Laurence -- this does not work either.  You cannot type a 7 on the keyboard and
have it register with the Fritz/Junior GUI.  I reported this to ChessBase and
they did not have any workaround.  I doubt they are working on it though.

I'm with Freddie in that this bugs the heck out of me.  ChessBase -- if you are
reading this,  Please fix it!

A patch should be trivial I would think for something so minor.
