I'm no doubt a bit late on this one. But the right Alt key is, on some (European ??) keyboards hard-wired as <Alt + Control> (for entering the key codes of our weird currencies and accented characters). If it is, it's often labelled <Alt Gr>. >From then on, it depends on the program. Some are happy if an Alt key has been pressed, no matter which, others make the distinction between Alt and Alt+Ctl .. And MS Word sometimes will and sometimes won't accept <AltGr+Y> as the same as <Alt+Ctl+Y> (its thoroughly Windows-compatible 'find again' keystroke). It isn't a leg-pull, Rikona, it's a key difference :-) John _____________________________________________________________________ Envie de discuter en "live" avec vos amis ?
