>>Sorry again for being such a dumb, but the main menu is not from my application, it's from top-level application and it uses standard windows items, e.g. it's standard Edit menu with all options. How can my form temporary substitute this menu item with my item and restore it back, when form finishes?

Why not just use the asterisk for the key, plus for select single and minus for deselect single? It's the standard keys used in several clones of Norton Commander (don't remember the NC itself because the clones were far better).

I solved this problem by ON KEY LABEL Ctrl+A _screen.activeform.SelectAll() in GotFocus and On Key Label Ctrl+A in LostFocus. I agree, this is not elegant (? sp), but it's sufficient. Besides, users didn't ask for this functionality, I just thought, that it would be nice to have. Not sure, that * would be better, don't remember, if I've seen this interface anythere...
