KEYBOARD "{CTRL+W}"

will close with save.

** DISREGARD QUESTION - Release window after ctrl-w will work. Thanks.

A complication has come up. The Activate Window / Keyboard combination doesn't want to work in my real app. As I review the test program from yesterday I notice that the design window really closes when the program ends, not when the ctrl-w is issued from the program, I think because the design window is not really activated.

The command sequence works from the command window, of course.

Can you offer any suggestions?
