Reflection has a configuration setting for NUM-LOCK that is saved in the
settings file. You can turn off NUM-LOCK and GLOBAL-NUM-LOCK and then save
your settings file to force NUM-LOCK off each time Reflection starts. This
works very well for most laptops. Of course if you have a docking station
like Denys you could keep multiple settings files; 1 with NUM-LOCK disabled
for remote use, and the other with NUM-LOCK enabled for use when docked.

To disable press ALT-Y to bring up Reflection Command Window and enter these
two commands:

set num-lock ON
set global-num-lock ON

Or you could just turn NUM-LOCK on/off as needed using the keyboard  :-)
