      Menu item mnemonics are generally handled by Accelerators (in your resources).  You could look into discarding and reloading a different set of Accelerators.    Barring that, you could use PreTranslateMessage at the application level to handle the key combinations and trigger commands from there, but that would be kinda kludgy.    Peace! -=- James


      If you think it costs a lot to do it right, just wait until you find out how much it costs to do it wrong!
