Sorry Laura, I think it was me that misunderstood what you were saying!
As Alastair says, in Tiger, command-tab does indeed bring up the dock - but tab again and things are highlighted in turn Command ~ would do nothing if you only have one window open in the current application - try opening, for example, a number of browser windows and then try it. Regarding how to type ⌘ - as Ronni says I did use the character palette - just select the character and click the "insert" button. Cheers Neil -- Neil R.
