Contact the folks who make Glovia and tell them to get with the program! Sorry George — never heard of Glovia, but apparently it uses non-standard keys.

It really should work for every Windows application that has an icon in the title bar. kay, can you let me know where it hasn’t worked for you?

I always used to wonder how the hell one accesses that part. ALT + Spacebar - good to know. Thanks. I am working on linux right now and this works here too.

My bet is that on your machine running XP Home, you have some software installed that came with either your monitor or your video card (or such software was preinstalled by the vendor of your computer). Check to see if you have an icon in the system tray (in the lower right) that has a name such as "Rotate" or "Orientation" and if you right-click on it, you can learn more about it. Then you can either change the shortcut keys or disable them (if that's what yhou want to do), or have that same software installed on your XP Pro terminals if you want them to support the same shortcuts.

(e.g. Cntrl + Alt + the down arrow will cause the screen to display upside down) But, this does not work on my terminals running XP Pro. Is this a legitimate shortcut, a quirk of XP Home or a setting? I just discovered that on my terminal running XP Home, Cntrl + Alt + an arrow key will change the orientation of the display.
