Hi,

Does anyone know the keyboard shortcut for 'Close Window' or 'Exit' in Windows XP? In Windows 98 it's Alt+F4 or Escape. I find Escape only works on certain things.

Also if I try opening up a MS Word Document, why does it seem to take forever to open? It's a new PC - 2.0GHz, 512Mb RAM, 80Gb HDD...

Thanks.

Use this, you'll find all you need;

If you need particular software shortcuts, you'll find them in the programs HELP file.

Word documents can take longer to open if you have virus scanning in place. I personally prefer the extra time it takes rather than run the risk of opening an unscanned document.
