This is bizarre again... the "Y" in RTTY works that way, but NOT the "B"
in SSB on the CW/RTTY/SSB Message.  Hold on... OK... NOW...the latter will
work today using ALT + B.  Yesterday it would not.  There appears to be a
Gremlin at work here.

No, not on my machine (as per above).  Today, it requires ALT + B to work.
Yesterday it would NOT work that way.

Thank you very much, Paul.  I think I still need to get a newer version
and find out which version of the runtime.dll should be installed.  I'm
wondering now if an install of another program may have plopped in an
older runtime.dll or something.
