    Can't assign an access key to a label ... because a label can't get focus.

    It's a Windows Form (.NET) thing.

      Fine ... It still looks like that's what he's trying to do. Ampersand; underline; label; ...

            That has nothing to do with C/C++. Please post in the correct forum and show the code that is not working.

                    I suggest you open a new question in the correct forum[^], and show the code that you have, and explain clearly what is going wrong.

                      Well, I think you are talking about a Resource Script of some type. Dealing with a Button or Menu. I must admit, my knowledge of C# is Zero. However, this happens in MFC if you try to use the same Underscore twice. ( As in &Underline in One Menu, and &Undo in another menu) The Framework does not bother to disambiguate, to make you choose between 'Underline' and 'Undo'. The idea of Shortcut Keys is 'Shortcuts', not a philosophical set of Dialogs about what you Really meant when you typed CTRL + U. If there is ambiguity, the system does unexpected things, such as not underlining YOUR &U if the system has already a Ctrl + U in its Scope. Don't know the rules, but I guess, that is where your problem lays. In effect, there are only 26 Ctrl+... shortcuts available, a bakers dozen of which (such as Ctrl + X for 'Edit.Cut') have been used by Microsoft. I take it you understand the gist of where I'm getting to. Hope this is helpful Regards,:) Bram

                        by pressing the alt key, or using a timer with sendkeys.send("%"), or turning on 'the Hide keyboard navigation indicators until I use the Alt key on control panel' fixed this poblem :)
