Shortcut keys on form

T

Thomas Gersei

Hi,

I would like to assign shortcut keys (accelerator keys)
to some buttons on my form. How can I do this?

Thanx for your help!

You need to make sure they are unique on the form and that they don't match
the ones on the Access toolbar. Placing an ampersand (&) before a letter in
the caption of the button will underline that letter and make the button
accessible by Alt+Letter. Also, if you set the button's Default option to
true, it will activate by pressing Enter until you move the focus to another
button. You can also set the button's Cancel property to true to make that
button activate by pressing Esc.

Example:
Press &Me
will underline the M.
