SUMMARY
When you attempt to define an application shortcut key for a program item in MS-DOS Shell, combinations of CTRL, ALT, SHIFT, and the number &quot;2&quot; are displayed incorrectly. Where the number &quot;2&quot; should appear, a double-headed arrow is displayed. This is an error in the way the key combination is shown; the defined key combination still functions correctly.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in MS-DOS version 5.0. This problem does not occur in later versions of MS-DOS.
