Product(s): Microsoft Home Multimedia Titles

The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Bookshelf for the Macintosh 1994 edition 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Holding down the OPTION key does not alter COMMAND key combinations in Bookshelf
1994. COMMAND+OPTION key combinations should differ from COMMAND key
combinations.

For example, pressing COMMAND+A highlights the text in the current article.
Pressing COMMAND+OPTION+A does exactly the same thing.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Bookshelf for the Macintosh, 1994
edition. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
