Hi David, Thank you for these volume changing tips! Hopefully, the FN key + up / down arrow keys will work for her. She is rather clumsy on this laptop arrangement, & until she gets used to it,I'm trying to find her the easiest keystrokes to navigate with. Thanks again, & David, I know it isn't said often enough but, thank you very much for all the help you give to myself & all the list members. Take care. Mike
