import keyboard map preset?

I'm trying to import a keyboard hotkey preset I made in VV6 into VV8. I've followed instructions in the help file (to take the ini and place it in a certain folder) but it doesn't show up in the drop down list in V8.
Can anyone shed any light on this issue. Have you done this successfully?

I posted this in the audio forum but got no replies.
I submitted this as a tech support stub but have gotten no replies.

I figured it out.

to recap:
In Vegas 6 I created and saved some keyboard hotkeys (like alt-m = clip mute, alt-n = normalize clip, etc.)
I have saved these user hotkeys as an ini file and would like to import these user hotkeys into Vegas 8 so I don't have to reprogram all my user hotkeys. The presets made in version 6 do not appear in version 8 as described in the documentation. It is refered to as "import keymap" in the help file.
The fix is to add:

[SfKeyMap]
Name=[Default]

(change default to something else)
to the beginning of the V6 file (in notepad) as it seems to have no name that V8 recognizes.

ps - my tech support ticket for this issue was finally responded to today. I guess they're working through a backlog of trouble. Fix was all me tho' ;)
