= SYMPTOMS =

When you type text in a Road Atlas for Windows dialog box, the following shortcut keys do not work.


 * CTRL+DEL (usually selects text)
 * SHIFT+INSERT (usually pastes text)

= WORKAROUND =

To work around this program limitation, press and hold down the CTRL key while you press the X key (CTRL+X) to cut selected text. Press and hold down the CTRL key while you press the V key (CTRL+X) to paste text.

CTRL+DEL deletes selected text. This command does not store the text in the Clipboard. The following standard shortcut keys are supported.


 * CTRL+X Cut text
 * CTRL+C Copy text
 * CTRL+V Paste text

= MORE INFORMATION =

This feature is under review and will be considered for inclusion in a future release.
