Thanks for the help. I talked to the head of user training and she said the benefits of moving to Modeless Top Level forms far outweigh the users relearning F9 as the save key. All the new users just use the mouse anyway but our biggest customers have been using it for over 12 years and stared with the DOS version and the F10 Save.
