poit! Not really anything new, but...

Today's irritant:  CTRL-F is the Windows de facto shortcut key for "Find"...

...except in Outlook.

Way to follow your own guidelines, ya mooks!

Heh, I was annoyed by that a week back. Then I tried futily to figure out just how the hell Outlook's find is SUPPOSED to work (perhaps people want to find something -besides- just subject line or author...) until giving up.

Just like how F3 is the Windows standard for 'Find Again'....except in Internet Explorer and Word. That one caught me again this morning.
"Do as we say, not as we do!"

Still beats Lotus Notes, where each iteration seems increasingly geared towards tripping up those used to Windows standards. I wouldn't be surprised if they someday map 'Ctrl-C' to 'Clear'!
