In the DataWindow Painter, you can assign accelerator keys to line edits, DropDownListBoxes, CheckBoxes, and RadioButtons.

  1. Double-click the column name and number.  The Column window displays. 
  2. Click the appropriate radio button in the Edit Style box.
  3. Click the Edit Style button.  The Edit Style window displays the style options. 
  4. Assign the accelerator key: 
  5. To assign an accelerator key to a line edit or DropDownListBox, enter the letter you want to use as the accelerator key in the Accelerator box.

    TIP:   To indicate the accelerator key in the text for the line edit or DropDownListBox, enter an ampersand (&) before the letter you assigned as the accelerator key.  The letter will display underlined.

    To assign an accelerator key to a CheckBox or RadioButton, enter an ampersand (&) in the text for the display value immediately before the letter you want to assign as the accelerator key.  The letter following the ampersand will be underlined in the DataWindow. 

To use the accelerator key to select a DropDownListBox, line edit, CheckBox or RadioButton:

    When the pointer is not in a line edit or DropDownListBox,, press the underlined character.

    When the pointer is in a line edit or DropDownListBox, press the ALT+underlined character.
