Very slick, Chris! I don't remember ever seeing this tip before. Is this

Dont remember. I learned it in school taking a class to learn Office
better. And it just turned out it also worked in Wordpad.

I tried this. It works ONLY with the 2 along the top of the main keyboard.
No luck with ctrl+2 on numeric keypad.

Good point, Malv. I used the 2 along the top. Never tried the number pad.
The "2's" look the same but strangely keyboards send a slightly different
signal for each. Well, strange to logical humans anyhow. ;^)

Does anyone know why Wordpad tries to connect to Microsoft every time I open
Help?
