Meanwhile I may strip down an example from my application I may
send you off-list.
Yep - found it: self~connectKeyPress('RMC', .VK~MENU) returned -7
what means I can not have two connectKeyPress pointing to RMC().
The one before was self~connectKeyPress('RMC', .VK~M ','
.VK~DIVIDE ',' .VK~F10, "NONE") and adding .VK~MENU here makes no
sense due to filter 'NONE'. As such, I must have two methods
calling both the same routine. Well, three methods, because RMC is
alse for right mouse click... ;)

Well, on Windows XP and 7 (others I do not know) you may activate
a 'key snap-in function' (Einrastfunktion in German) for easy
typing. As such you may press Ctrl+Alt+Del one after the other
(not simultanously) to restart. Probably ooDialog is not aware of
this Windows setting.

OK, I will make A show the about instead of F13 (Shift+F1)

Normaly it fits quite well, at least for me. I used an HP200LX a
lot for some time and got used to those 'sticky' Shift and Ctrl
and Alt keys. Now I stick with it. ;)
