Hotkeys on the MAC

[ShaneDevenshire]

Hi Folks,

The PC has underscored hot keys for accessing the Menu system and in dialog
boxes - which execute via Alt + the underscored letter. I remember that on
the MAC there was a way to force the underscores to show, but I can't
remember how?

Any help would be appreciated.

See my reply to your previous post (don't remember which regular XL
group) for one suggestion.

Hi JE,

As you can see I posted everywhere, and as I can see you are everywhere
responding.

Underscored hotkeys existed in Mac Office when the Mac Office dialogs looked
and behaved exactly like their Windows counterparts . Everybody agreed that
looking and behaving like Windows dialogs was not very "Mac like".
Underscored hotkeys were removed in our last major UI overhaul in an effort
to align ourselves more closely with Mac OS user expectations.
