I am not aware that EG has one. EG inherited those shortcut keys from Base SAS program editor, and they are only valid in EG program editor.

Thanks, Haikuo.

@ChrisHemedinger - If you have any suggestions, it would make my day!

Unfortunately, as Haikuo guessed, EG does not currently have a keyboard shortcut for accessing the "Recently Viewed Items" dropdown. That would be a nice improvement.

Just saw this thread with the same question:

See Chris' reply in that thread about using the free AutoHotKey tool to possibly fill in the gap.

Thanks, Casey! It looks like I need to investigate that utility Chris mentioned.
