Oh man, I think I did it the hard way. Well, I guess we found 2 ways of 
doing this now. When I tried silencing the windows keys I received a prompt 
telling me this could not be done. I'm sure had I followed your instructions 
a bit more precisely I would have been able to make these changes all at 
once using your modify print solution. I'll go back in there and experiment 
a bit.

Thanks,

A-W

A.W. he wasn't talking of setting jaws to advanced verbosity, Arder was
referring to the manage key labels tab that I was raving about also. Sorry
I'm doing my mail backwards again. <grin.>

But, try muting that modified Printable option in that list Andre, and
you'll find it'll kill the modifiers like the ones you mention. Mute all the
function keys to have things like altF4 shut up as well.
