The Solution Explorer closes as it should and the screen goes dark. WE still holds focus so the original problem is still there. I just need to figure out how to get WE not to hold focus on the window it is still on after Solution Explorer is hidden. I posted a question to that effect a few minutes ago. i tried setting focus to the Active Window but that did not help. If I get that working this puppy will finally be done and I can move on to the next accessibility fix. Rick USA
