The ALT+F6 key combination is reserved for use by Windows 95. Programs
that try to control this key combination are unable to use it.
On keyboards with 16 function keys (such as the Wang keyboard), keys
F13-F16 are mapped to other key combinations. The F16 key is mapped to
the ALT+F6 key combination.

Use the mouse to switch between windows in your program, or assign another
key combination to the macro in your program.

Reserved key combinations (ALT+TAB, CTRL+ESC, ALT+ESC, and ALT+F6) are
captured by Windows 95. These key combinations are captured by Windows 95
to prevent programs from interfering with task switching, thereby improving
overall system reliability.
