- You did not indicate which 'windows' your are trying to use, i.e. MS
- Windows, X-Windows, GEOS Windows, RTX Windows, etc.:) but I'll assume
- that your question refers to Microsoft Windows.
-
- Press and hold the ALT key. While holding the ALT key in the down
- position press the TAB key. This will cause MS Windows versions 3.0
- and greater to display, one at a time, the icon, and Main Window
- Caption of the applications currently running. If you see one that you
- like, just release the ALT key. Like magic, that application's current
- window will be restored and brought to the foreground where you can
- use it. (Windows is easy to use, isn't it!;). Later, after you have
- had more experience, try using 'TaskMan', to switch between
- applications.

- Standard Speech:
-
- comp.lang.c++ if for c++ related questions, etc. For windows related
- queries it is better to post in comp.os.ms-windows, etc. See the
- usenets beginning with comp.os.ms-* for a complete listing. BTW, most
- comp.os-ms-windows groups post a FAQ, Frequently Asked Questions
- document that can be very helpful in their topic areas. Get the FAQs
- before posting. Chances are good your answers will be there.
