Shortcut to "lock screen" WM6.5 - General Questions and Answers

I want to remap one my softkeys on the homescreen to "lock". This function is now hidden in start > lock (left bottom key) in WM6.5.
Anyone know the shortcut?

Do you have hardware keys?
If so, holding down the "end" key will lock your phone.

or you can use Auto Lock.

Device Unlock on i780 Key Combination Issue

Hi all, I'm trying to change the default "LEFT SOFTKEY > *" combo to unlock my device. Something else than *, which is very hard to find and press on my QWERTY keyboard. Maybe "LEFT SOFTKEY > SEND" would be nice.
Can this be done? Any help will be great.
I don't want to use touchscreen to unlock device, and I can't use END(red button) long press because I've reassigned both softkeys to left /right arrow keys through AEBPlus.

assign soft keys to shortcut

anyone know if it's possible to assign a shortcut to the softkey action
(ie. the softkeys are different in word to those on the today screen, can i assign a shortcut to that action)
i use a bluetooth keyboard which can be configured to any shortcut. it would be real handy to be able to just hit a couple of keys rather than reach for the devices tiny screen everytime i want to activate the menu.
cheers
