Is there a keyboard shortcut equivalent to right-clicking that would bring up the same menus etc.?

TIA.

Most buttons have a "right-click" button next to the right Ctrl key. Does yours?
That should read, "Most keyboards...."
Between the Right Start key and the Right Ctrl key - it has a little picture of a context menu on it!
On my keyboard, going to the right:

Spacebar - Alt Gr - context (right click key)
I always thought my space bar was too small, Ethel. Now I know it's because I have an extra Start button after Alt-Gr!

Goodness, thanks! Have I really been blanking out that key all this time just because I didn't know what it was for?

Well, know I've got a bit of an idea at the very least. I'll try and use it all the time now. I don't think the keyboard at work has that key though (maybe I'm just blotting it out there too - Dell keyboard expert, anyone?)

The sort of response that reminds me what a great site this is.

Thanks again one and all.

Aren't keyboard shortcuts great compared to just using the mouse all the time?
I don't have a start key. :(

I have the Windows key that brings up the same menu as when I click Start - but it's on my left.
