From: Hector Santos on 26 Apr 2010 22:09 I think it would be nice that people provide a "VS" version for their questions. At least until, people catch up with VS2010. We know have: VS98 (1998, VC6) VS2003 VS2005 VS2008 VS2010 and it appears new questions are VS2010 related.

Opening the exe shows two brances under Accelerator in th exe. One is 144 and contains my dummy entry (command 100 on the 'B' key). The other is 30997 which has three entries: 58112 is VK_ESCAPE, 58114 is VK_NEXT, and 58115 is VK_PRIOR. I'm guessing (not a good thing to do...) that these are defaults for the framework. In any case, I don't see anything related to my command ID or my keystroke. Yeah, really weird!

Apparently the CKeyboardManager stores the accelerators (in \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Company\Product\Workspace \Keyboard-0). I know the user can customize the accelerator keys by right-clicking on the Quick Access Toolbar, choosing Customize and then Customize Keyboard Shortcuts, but I'm surprised my resource- defined accelerator ended up in the registry (and I didn't check the customized keyboard shortcuts dialog before deleting the Keyboard-0 entry in the registry). At this point I'm just glad to have this bug behind me. Steve

Thanks for posting that. I wasn't losing sleep over it, but I confess that this one had me curious. It's nice to know the resolution.
