 No, just in the Keyboard pref pane. I miss Menu Master (and Font Card
 for that matter), they were much more intuitive than Apple's methods.

Thanks for that Tina
I looked at Unsanity's site and apparently their stuff can go as far
as 10.6 with Rosetta.
They must be looking for daytime jobs
but that's another thread.

Under Keyboard tab Keyboard Shortcuts have you hit the Restore
defaults button?

tried that - no joy

 Do you have any additional software installed? Specifically the haxie  
 called Menu Master allows the custom reassignment of menu keyboard  
 commands.

yes I do have Menu Master installed but only one hotkey initiated
there-no shift-colon

 Some non-Apple keyboards have issues, and some Apple keyboards have  
 firmware updates available. Have you tried an alternate keyboard to  
 see if it's keyboard specific or system specific?

yes, tried alt keyboard - same issue

tried booting from alternate disc - problem goes away

wondering if I can restore from my backup disc somehow, last back up
two days ago
so not sure how to restore system files without losing new work (using
SuperDuper)

 99% chance this is a Menu Master problem. Perhaps look in your ~/
 Library/Preferences folder for com.unsanity.menumaster.plist and trash  
 this file.

100% chance.  That did it.
Thank you Kris

I've heard about Haxie issues but haven't experienced much.
Do OS versions later than Tiger offer contextual menu customization?
