Thanks for the link. I've not had time to read them all (bookmarked it
for later), but in addition to #23 (keyboard shortcuts for first 10
icons on the quick launch bar)...

You can assign keyboard shortcuts to any shortcut in the *start menu*.
Right-click the icon, select properties, enter a shortcut key in the
"Shortcut key" box, and click OK. Pressing Ctrl+Alt+YourKey then
launches that shortcut.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work the same for shortcuts on the
desktop or quick launch bar, but you can always add one to the start
menu if it's not already there.

Mark.

An excellent set of tips for the expierienced computer user who is upgrading
from a previous version of windows, but for the new user or a user coming
over from another operating system, most of the tips are too advanced or lack
more detailed instructions about use and function.

Good job, Jake
