Disregard the previous message - the first kludge works and I'm happy.

The next thing that doesn't: all the options in the shortcut menu are greyed out. Here's the .spr:

DEFINE POPUP shortcut SHORTCUT RELATIVE FROM MROW(),MCOL()
DEFINE BAR _med_undo OF shortcut PROMPT "\<Undo"
DEFINE BAR _med_sp100 OF shortcut PROMPT "\-"
DEFINE BAR _med_cut OF shortcut PROMPT "Cu\<t"
DEFINE BAR _med_copy OF shortcut PROMPT "\<Copy"
DEFINE BAR _med_paste OF shortcut PROMPT "\<Paste"
DEFINE BAR _med_clear OF shortcut PROMPT "\<Delete"
DEFINE BAR _med_sp200 OF shortcut PROMPT "\-"
DEFINE BAR _med_slcta OF shortcut PROMPT "Se\<lect All"

ACTIVATE POPUP shortcut

It seems to be detecting VFP native controls only. However, there's a hidden menu somewhere which has these same options, and it works using the regular keyboard shortcuts (ctrl+a, c, x, v). Why would this be disabled, while the other still works?
