Hmmm. Maybe, your computer likes to mess with old sailors .... *grin* Try a reboot. If that behavior continues, you will probably want to take a venture into System Preferences and look in the Shortcut tab under the Keyboard pane. I'd make sure nothing strange has happened in the Mission control shortcuts. Also, check Mission Control preferences in System Preferences as well, though I do not think you have much latitude in what shortcuts can possibly be switched to there. Take Care John D.
