Mac Parallels and the Delete key

[daN baueR]

I have Win XP installed in Parallels Desktop 8. It works just fine as you
mentioned. What version of Parallels is he using? Version of Mac OS? How
about the Mac keyboard is it the extended one w/ a numeric keypad? One
poorly documented feature the clear key functions as a num lock switch
under Parallels.
