YEAH!  Thank you. I’ve learned SO MUCH more about key bindings.. I 
could go a little nuts. I **Finally** understand the documentation. 
Correction to what you sent,  I needed to also have a folder inside 
“Resources” that was “KeyBindings” .

So happy - this comes in the middle of fighting with website development 
and not understanding that… and now I can load the pics easily on one 
newsletter I get. : )

Many thanks!
Annamarie
