Ahh, so i see you can relate. Quite. But what really made me go critical was my 11 year old son hovering over my shoulder during this time waiting to ask me if he can have a yogurt! YES YOU CAN HAVE A GOD DAMNED STINKIN YOGURT!!! DO YOU REALLY NEED TO ASK ME THESE STUPID QUESTIONS!?!?!?!? I made up later. Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

Yes, it is sometimes hard to remember "in the heat of battle" while talking to a user who shouldn't be within 10 feet of one. shift+F10 is a good second weapon. Example: "Since your too stupid to use your mouse, just put the arrow over blah blah and press shift and F10 at the same time" :-D:-D Later,

there's also the 'context menu' key, between the right ctrl and 'windows' keys. -c

Isn't that the same as pressing the key left of the right Ctrl key? Regards, Alvaro

Jeez, if the only way you can get a query to go into SQL design mode is by right-clicking on the caption bar, I don't think it's only the user's fault!

OK, there's the menu too. I just figured the popup menu would be faster. I was wrong! Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.
