[dba-Tech] Dual monitors Windows 8

I'm guessing that'd be the Pause/Break button that's usually near Print Screen and Scroll Lock.

Jon,

I'm completely with you on this.  Keyboard shortcuts just save me so much time and avoid wasted motions.

Going through the page, whose link you provided, I ran across one that I don't recognize and don't know how to implement.  In the list of Win-logo combinations is one for displaying the system properties dialog box.  It calls for the Win-logo + Pause.  I have no idea what that is supposed to mean.  Do you?

Thanks,
TNF
