>On my Fox 7.0 legacy app, the shortcut keys as specified by "\< " do not show underlines until I press the alt key. In MS Word, the shortcut keys are always underlined. I replace _SYSMENU with my own menu bar. Anybody know of an easy way to make the underlines always visible?

That should be a Windows setting. Amazing that Micorosft can't even follow their own rules.

For XP:
The setting is Right Click on your Windows Desktiop and choose Properties.
Under Display Properties, choose the Appearance tab.
Now click the Effects... button.
The last checkbox is "Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key".

Uncheck it and you should always see your hot keys in VFP. Don't know why Word or other Office apps don't honor the setting.
