Hi,
Thanks for the clarification good to know going forward.  I appreciate the 
information as it only helps me communicate better. I so hate being without 
that key; but also thank the person who alerted us to the control, shift f10 
option as well as that was new to me. I like learning something new everyday.
Here’s to email lists and their intended function (smile).
Robin

  If I’ve described the iconic symbol of that key incorrectly I’m sure someone 
will correct me.
Robin,

        The icon used on the context menu/applications key has been in flux 
over time and with manufacturers.  On my partner's laptop, a Toshiba satellite, 
the icon is a simple square with three vertical lines inside it, which I 
believe is a big abstraction of the way an actual menu appears.  On many other 
machines I've used over the years the icon has been a more "literal" 
interpretation of a menu and it really looked like a recognizable menu 
structure, without any labels.  I'll have to take a look at the remaining 
machines in the house and post what appears as the icon on that key if it 
differs significantly from the two I've already described.

Brian
