I have five "My Favorites" keys on my Microsoft keyboard, and I want to reprogram two of them to control Previous Song and Next Song in Windows Media Player.  The keyboard already has controls for mute, volume up and down, plus play/pause.

Each key accepts a program, does anyone know the switches required to control Windows Media Player 11?

I already have that software, but you can't assign a command, only the path to an executable.
