I believe that method should work regardless of whether extensions are showing, but thanks for the note. <smile>
As far as the right windows key, I certainly don't want to cause any confusion, but most people I know, call that key the right windows key, rather than the applications key, and the other, the left windows key, so effectively, some keyboards would have two left windows keys on them. <smile> Am certainly not saying that you're wrong, and it may be a matter of people simply using an incorrect name for a key, no biggie. The only place I've ever heard that key called an applications key is in context of a screen reader, so perhaps that's correct. Anyway, thanks for the note and have an awesome day!...
