Hi Roger,

Thank you for your suggestion but I must respectfully and very vigorously
disagree with you.

As a Windows developer of many years and a person who's only income comes
from the applications that he sells. I'm telling you that Ctrl+V, Ctrl+X and
Ctrl+C should *always* work in a Windows application. Tell me one time that
you've ever wanted to cut or paste something in a text box and not expected
it to work? I don't care if it is Mac or Windows. It should *always* work.
PERIOD.

I can't believe there is even a question about this. We can argue about
semantics and specifications all we want. That just doesn't matter. I'm
talking about the *real* world. And from my previous example, even Apple
developers agree with me.

Kamm

I would think that the behavior from 4.5.3 is the buggy behavior. It seems
to me that 5.5.2 now has it correct. BTW - the Ctrl-C, etc. work just fine
for me on an MDI app WITH a menu. If there is no menu, what are you
shortcutting to?
