Paul & Martin,

         Thanks for your input.  I had forgotten about CTRL+SHIFT+N.  Windows 
has a tendency to give way too many ways to accomplish the same tasks, but at 
least that gives people things to choose from.

         I may bring that command in, too, but I find that this client gets 
easily overwhelmed when I tell him something along the lines of, "You're going 
to perform function X, and you can do that this way, that way, or this other 
way, whichever you prefer."  For some clients that either has them instantly 
glom on to the technique they like the best or try doing it each way and then 
sticking with the one they like (at which point I try to note what that is for 
the specific client).  Others, though, suffer almost instant choice overload.

          Since this client is doing a lot of things that are somewhat menu 
intensive I've been shifting my own focus that way.  I do need to step back for 
certain really common functions that can be done with a single combination key 
press.

Thanks Again,

Brian
