Furthermore, I can get this to work ONLY WITH THE FIRST FIELD on the form!! Any
ideas???

In order to do what you want, you need to set the tabIndex property of
the lable immedietly before the control(field) you want to access>

Tip: When you have designed the form, click on each object in turn but in
REVERSE ORDER assigning a tab index of 0. (Assigning zero to a control makes
every other TabIndex value push up one). Then try tabbing through the form and
everything should be right.

In general, you need code like this in the KEYDOWN event of every control
from which you want to jump to your field.

----------------------------------------------------------    

    If Shift = 4 Then 'alt key

        Select Case KeyCode

            Case Asc("T")
                txtMailHeader(TO_HEADER).SetFocus

            Case Asc("S") 'subject
                txtMailHeader(SUBJECT_HEADER).SetFocus

            Case Asc("C") 'cc
                txtMailHeader(CC_HEADER).SetFocus

            Case Asc("A") 'attach
                txtMailHeader(ATTACH_HEADER).SetFocus

        End Select

    End If

----------------------------------------------------------    

Remember: the label is just a picture -- it informs the user, but plays no
part in the code.
