65072 2002-07-25 04:24:00 Some time ago I set up a shortcut where I open Notepad by
pressing Ctrl+Alt+N . Have forgotten how I set this up initially and
now want to set up another program. Anybody help?

65074 2002-07-25 05:43:00 Assuming you've already created your shortcut, right-click on it, choose Properties, click in the Shortcut Keys box, type your shortcut key combination and click OK. Susan B (19)
65075 2002-07-25 06:46:00 Yet another thing I have learned, or at least now I know how it works!!

Can you do the same to create a quick shutdown, instead of having to click Start, Shutdown and then saying "yes" to Shutdown

If so, How? or is there another way to do it. Again if so, How?

B-) :^O

65076 2002-07-25 06:58:00 I don't know one Iris, but I find it really quick tapping the Windows key on my keyboard, then the letter u (or the up arrow if you wish) then enter.

With a bit of practice you can do it far quicker than using the mouse. I try and do as much as I can with the keyboard rather than use the mouse.

65079 2002-07-25 09:36:00 This code C:\WINDOWS\RUNDLL.EXE shell32.dll,SHExitWindowsEx 2 can be used to restart the computer in windows 98se.

I forget the code for shutdown, but is very similar, the 2 will change to something else.

I have a icon that i can click on that will restart for me, I could assign a shortcut key to that.

I find that when shitting down the best method is using ALT + F4 untill all the programs are closed and the shutdown dialog box appears, then use enter.
