Thanks Barbara. I actually created it just now at home and it displays Ok. But at work it does not. I will open the MPR and check what is in it.

>>I have a menu with my app. I have assigned hotkeys to certain menu options by going clicking on the Options button of the item which opens the Prompt Options window.
>>
>>Here in the KeyLabel field I press ALT+F5 and that is inserted as a hot key.
>>
>>And I can also assign F12 to another menu option.
>>
>>However on running the menu the ALT+F5 appears but NOT the F12 next to the menu.
>>
>>Is this correct? What's the use of assigning such a key when it is hidden?
>>
>>Is this a bug?
