Hi Glenn.  I don't think your thread was forgotten -- it's just that the

person who said that flash won't recognize the shift key in an On Key

statement was right (afaik).  It will recognize a letter made capital by

using the shift key, but I can't find a way to make it pick out the

shift key separately.  Could you come up with an alternate way to do

this, like having the user click a "range" button and then click the

start and end days?  Or highlight the days as they're click-and-dragged

over and grab the range that way?  Maybe someone else will think of a

more efficient way to grab a group of -- what are they, individual movie

clips?  textfields?
