I have an Excel form that I am using for data entry. On the form, I have
several command buttons that I want to assign hotkeys to, but the standard of
setting the caption with an ampersand before the character does not seem to
work. The caption displays the ampersand rather than underlining the
character following the ampersand.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi

You could use the Acclerator property of the buttons.

Thanks. Worked just like I wanted it to, although I have a Find button and
it didn't like the "F". Any particular reason for that?

You probably have already another control with F as the accelerator key.
Note that the accelerator is case sensitive. You can use F for one control
and f for another. James
