Are you sure you don't have another accelerator table in res\<your

I would search for ID_VIEW_ZOOMOUT in all files in the folder.

I've searched for ID_VIEW_ZOOMOUT, searched for the literal 33455 (in
case it was defined and associated with the '-' key), checked rc2, and
searched for ACCELERATORS (case sensitive, which is how it appears in
the rc file). And if I remove that last, lone, dummy accelerator (see
original post), the problem goes away. If I keep the dummy entry and
view the accelerators from the resource editor (rather than from the
text editor), only the one dummy entry is there.

Still stumped.

Could you open your .exe in Visual Studio (open the .exe 'Resources') and
see what accelerators are actually compiled into the .exe. If worst comes
to worst you can delete any ones that shouldn't be there and re-save the
..exe. This is really weird.
