I am having trouble trying to assign Ctrl+Alt+F to EditCopyFileName in version 5. I listed all of my current shortcuts and it isn't currently assigned. When I try to assign it, the "Assign" button does not get enabled. I had no trouble assigning this in version 4.7.3, am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,
John

What happens if you try another keystroke combination? Is Ctrl+Alt+F the only key you can't use? If so, it's possible that it's already been assigned to a Windows shortcut. Try using a utility like this to check:

ctrl+alt+f key assignment works ok on my copy of TP 5.0 on win2000 - for information.

I have checked my shortcuts with the aforementioned program and nothing is bound to Ctrl+Alt+F. Ii seems it is not limited to EditCopyFileName, but any action. It seems that I cannot assign a shortcut with any combination of Ctrl+[A-Z0-9] or Ctrl+Shift+[A-Z0-9] or Ctrl+Alt+[A-Z0-9], however just [A-Z0-9] or Shift+[A-Z0-9] or Alt+[A-Z0-9] works as well as any combination of Ctrl+[^A-Z0-9] or Ctrl+Shift+[^A-Z0-9] or Ctrl+Alt+[^A-Z0-9] also works fine.

Very strange. What would be preventing only alpha-numeric shortcuts when used in a Ctrl + Shift or Alt chord?
