How to make another key function as a spacebar in Windows XP?

Question

We have an older laptop that is still used a lot and works fine... accept for the spacebar is not functional. How can we assign the spacebar functions to another key - one of the Alt keys or both next to the spacebar would be best.

Answer 1

Windows XP does not have this function natively, you would need a third party utility to map a button to the SPACE function. Some possibilities are KeyTweak or SharpKeys
