Hi Guys: While there is still some things to flesh out I found Marks'
WebBiners, PodCasts, very good and well done.
I'm not sure why this information isnt in the standard Documentation set
under some category like Working Windows 8 or something, a text version
structured by relevant outline groups as the rest of the Docs, but the
information he gave was very good if you take notes along the way.
Add to that some of the things I am finding out from you guys and Aaron and
others about things I dont think are documented anyplace obvious and I
should have a working document on using Windoweyes with Windows 8 and 8.1 I
can use and share with friends if they ask.
One day perhaps I will learn MS Word, saw some Podcasts for it, and make it
a nice little document to float the internet web - GW could use some
positive noise out there and Marks' tutorials were pretty good and could
hold their own with any other reader out there.
Later and thanks for help with the SSplitButton question!
Rick USA

Also, the one in windows explorer, just down arrow gives you the context
menu and it just seems to take you to different parts of the alphabet.

At least in the ones I know, hitting space gives you the context menu
