Hi Wayne,

I'm not sure that *reserved* is the right word. However, if you want
shortcuts to programs in Windows, that is indeed the way to create them.
What I'm saying is that I don't think it is wrong for REALbasic to use them
and I certainly would not want them to be removed. I use them frequently -
VERY frequently. How would you propose that RB change the program that would
make both of us happy?

In Windows, Ctrl+Alt+<Key> is reserved for global shortcuts.  For instance,
on my installation of Windows the shortcut

Ctrl+Alt+M opens Mozilla/Firefox
Ctrl+Alt+C opens Calculator
Ctrl+Alt+N opens Notepad
Ctrl+Alt+P opens Perforce
etc...

Therefore these shortcuts do not work in RealBasic and I don't see a way to
modify them, taking away my only means of possibly being able to code more
quickly in this IDE. Will this be addressed in a future release?

Thanks,

Wayne Bloss
