Can launch but not start Commando

Hi!
I can launch the game from 1985: Commando. It then prompts me to hit the RUN key to start. How do I go about that? I have configured keypad 1 as joystick. Was there a RUN key on the Commodore 64? I do not recall clearly.
I have tried various emulators, e.g. Vice. Same issue.
Cheers

You must have a different Commando game than me, mine starts with the fire button.
If you check in the C:\Program Files\Computerbrains\CCS64 V3.0 folder, you will find an Adobe Acrobat file called CCS64 Keyboard Layout. In there it mentions that the Run/Stop key is mapped to the Escape key.
ESC doesn't work

Hi!
Thanks for reply. ESC key brings me into the menues of Vice emulator. Running the emulator on a PC. Perhaps I should try a Mac OS X emulator, if any exists?
In Vice I configured Keypad 1 various buttons, e.g. fire as whatever (in my case I chose "ENTER" key), then I chose joystick 2 = keypad 1. Tried joystick 1 = keypad 1. No go.
Cheers

I'm sorry,
This is the CCS64 Forum, so I thought that was the emulator you were using. I don't use Vice so I can't help you with that. How far do you get using CCS64?
