Hotkeys (for apps)

[joemader]

Ok, so I've found the lists with most of the hotkeys for the surface...pulling up charms...settings..jumping to desktop..ect.

My question, are their hotkeys (or a way to make them), to open a certain app.

Specifically, I would like to be able to jump from Desktop (Windows + D) to my Calender app, for ease when making plans/appointments...Windows + C would be perfect.

Thoughts?
