HB,
Thanks. I could do that, but it would not be as easy to use the
shortcut keys, and, having carpal tunnel flareups frequently, I need
all the ease I can get on the keyboard.
I just thought that when a certain control has the focus, keystrokes
should go to that control. Maybe Tomasz could comment on this.
