Hi J.J., I too think it's a pretty cool script!
Yah, windows and insert both are pretty uncertain for laptop users; and we're just running out of control and alt and shift combinations. One other thing is you could remind people (in the help) about the menu choice for the script which activates the product search, just as the hotkey does, and if they have a conflict, one option would be to undefine the hotkey and make use of the menu choice instead to activate the script. And of course, the nice thing about the hotkey interface is we're all free to choose what makes sense to us (though I do wish it would alert the user when any script attempted to register a global hotkey which had already been registered by another script). It's obviously not clear to all users when a conflict happens, especially if scripts define extra hotkeys not mentioned in their help. Anyway, congrats on adding another cool script to our growing collection! Chip -----Original Message----- From: J.J.

I had it at Alt-Insert-P, but that's just a crazy stretch of the hands, depending on where your insert key is. Open to other ideas, though would like to avoid the Windows key.
