Looking for an equivalent KEYBOARD SHORTCUT to use instead of having to stop
and RIGHT-CLICK on my mouse when I'm in an "Open File" directory. . . . HELP!
 
Most Windows keyboards have a key to the right of the right-hand Windows key
that opens shortcut menus.

I found it a bit tricky getting this to work in Word's File Open dialog,
though, since the focus is in the filename box, and tabbing takes you
everywhere but the window itself. I finally figured out that Shift+Tab will
go from the filename to the window. And if you want the shortcut menu for a
specific file rather than the window itself, you have to DownArrow to the
desired filename.
