[AccessD] Ctrl Break

Hey John
You make me laugh (in a good way). This new desktop machine cost me $800
bucks and it does not come with a Break key on the keyboard. It is like
buying a new car and not getting any window washers. 
Anyway thing done, move on, just was hoping there was a alternative to <CTRL
Break>.

Thanks

Tony,

I understand your disappointment but it is a keyboard thing not Windows per
se.  Go to walmart, look 
for a keyboard with the break key and buy it.
