Tom,
	I'll e-mail Tony and see if he can send me the list of hotkeys.
I'll keep you posted.  And thanks for being so willing to help.

    Dave:

Contact Tony Lacy directly, and he should be able to send you the list
of 
hot keys he has developed.

If he can't, or doesn't respond in a timely manner, let me know, and
I'll 
try to dig up my list for you.

The version I used is probably about 2 years old now.

Just let me know how I can help, and I'll do anything more I can.
