Yes, that's very true, I should have added that statement for a clearer explanation. AFAIK It works because it's a system command, not a LC command. The same shortcuts (cmd+ fist letter) usually work on many dialogue boxes on the Mac, and have done for may years. Win underlines any system shortcuts that are available so Win users are more used to seeing this. Like Dr. Hawkins, I also noticed that just pressing the first letter sometimes works, but it's not reliable and I haven't spent much time analysing this to determine what causes the unreliability.
