keyboard shortcut for start menu

real quick, what is the keyboard shortcut for the "start" menu, and how do you change it?  I am used to it being either Ctrl-ESC or Alt-F3, but neither of those work.

Re: keyboard shortcut for start menu

You have to add your own to either /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml or copy rc.xml to ~/.config/openbox

On cooking this configures left windows key to open applications menu and right windows key to launch xterm.
