XP on screen keyboard - shortcut keys?

Hello,

Is there a set of keys that I can press to display the on-screen keyboard?
I know it's a bit ironic I ask this, but I need to find out.

Launch the Utility Manager with Winkey+U, there you can configure Magnifier,
Narrator, and On-Screen Keyboard to start in various manners, one of which is to
start with the UM.

Press the 'windows' key + 'U'. (The windows key is normally the second button
from the left on the bottom row of the keyboard with the windows logo on it.)

A window will open giving you some of the accessibility options available.

Highlight the on screen keyboard and check the box for it to start when the
'Utility Manager' starts and then click okay. Read and follow other prompts
as needed.

Subsequent presses of the 'Windows + U' combination will automatically start
the on screen keyboard.

OR, press the Windows key with "R", type OSK and press Enter.
