Hi!
Thanks guys. Yes, I was using my tower computer since 2001 and could not go
past the 4.11 version because of the cost and need.
Last year i was asked to do jobs for Tompkins County involving Access 2003,
thus needed upgrades; ask Chip Orange when that started.
So, received a new lap top with latest software, including both screen
readers. Then the flip screen came up when the notebook died and such.
So, will check the box once I have the screen flipped back up.
Thanks guys!
Bruce

The mentioned KB article can be found at
http://www.gwmicro.com/Support/Knowledge_Base/?kbnumber=GWKB1022 The
hotkeys were changed because of conflicts with other apps. I think
Office was the primary culprit, but that change was made so very long
ago I don't even recall. You really have jumped a few WE versions,
Bruce! *smile* Dig on all that new functionality, my man.
