Assigning Keyboard Shortcut to "Format, Unindent" 1

[agbtech]

I would like to use Ctrl+A to select everything in a prg file and then use a keyboard shortcut to unindent everything instead of having to use the mouse to keep selecting the Format menu option and then 'unindent'.
Does anyone know how I would go about assigning a shortcut to the unindent menu option?

Shift+Tab

If you press Alt+Enter you could define the size of the indentation.

Thank you! Is there a shortcut for commenting and uncommenting? If not, can I set one?

Certainly.

Shift+F10, then m for comment, or n for uncomment.

just to point out obvious:
you don't need to press shift-F10. You very much like have the "context menu key" (next to your right "Window logo key") just for it.

True, but not all keyboards have this key. My laptop, for instance.

I also have a laptop.
So where is the documentation about the shift F10?

In the Windows Help file.

'uncomment' and 'comment'?
You mean the fox help file?

Shift-F10 is the same as a right-click. At least in VFP9 the additional short cuts then available are indicated by an underlined letter.

Also try:

ON KEY LABEL F2 Keyboard "{BACKTAB}" Plain
ON KEY LABEL F3 Keyboard "{SHIFT+F10}{M}" Plain
ON KEY LABEL F4 Keyboard "{SHIFT+F10}{N}" Plain

My laptop does have a menu key, so there are at least four ways...

Agbtech,

No. I mean the Windows Help file.

The point is that Shift-F10 is a standard Windows key for invoking the right-click menu. It's got nothing to do with VFP.

There's always an alternative - to comment/uncomment I use Alt-O then M or N. I found that less awkward than Shift-f10.
