Try unchecking all the boxes for Windows Escape Keys in the MS Dos Window->Properties->Misc properties sheet. This is available when you right click on the title bar of an active MS Dos Window, or on the executable itself in Explorer. I found this kept Windows 95 from grabbing Function and ALT key combinations. Ken N.
