Rose,
Thanks for the tip. However pressing Enter once brings up equal to an
Application key menu on the application behind the system tray. If in
Eudora and I press Shift F11, it wants me to send a message, compose, check
messages and etc. if I minimize everything to desktop and try it, it wants
to sort icons and etc. Thanks for posting though.
