Yes, I saw the .../wiki/StickyModifiers and after receiving your
suggestion read it carefully.  As a first solution I was hoping to find
a keyboarding slight of hand or an alternative key binding.  The problem
with the sticky key solution is that it affects all keys and I am only
having a problem with one key combination at the moment.  But I haven't
thrown out stickkeys as a solution if I can't find something else.
