When I press ALT-3 windows beeps at me. If I press ALT-F I get the file menu for that window. It seems as if windows is capturing the ALT-blah sequences, not hyperterm. I poked around and couldn't find a setting that bypassed this. Perhaps I wasn't clear earlier: I have everything else working just fine, its just that damn ALT-3 sequence I can't get.
