If you are programming a Win32 application, you need an Accelerator.

yeah, I'm using Win32.

I have looked up accelerators for quite a while and none of them seem to work. :-( can somebody give me an example of what they used that worked please?

Try the following APIs

LoadAccelerators()
TranslateAccelerator()

And you need a resources file like this

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
MyAccel ACCELERATORS

{

   "^S", 100

}
