[AccessD] Shortcuts Working without Alt Key

If the form that you are using does not have any data fields on it, then
you can use the straight out press of the letter.  If there is data
fields on the form, the alt-key combo does it.

No.  It's the same on three different boxes.

Now, there's a possibility I'm getting senile or losing my beans here.
I 
use the underscore on all main menu command buttons so that the user
doesn't 
have to use the mouse.

Now I've ALWAYS thought that to use those underscores you had to use the
Alt 
key simultaneously with the underscored character.  So maybe I've never 
tried it without the Alt key.

Now someone just told me that it always worked that way - no alt key 
required.

So how do are those underscore shortcuts SUPPOSED to work?
