Hi Folks.
At the risk of belaboring this Jerry's point...
In Win/Win95/WinNT land, the Shift-Tab acts like a "previous" tab key. If
Tab goes from one widget to the next defined widget on your window, then
Shift-Tab goes back in the opposite direction. This is a fairly standard
way of navigating Win applications sans mouse. I often use this feature on
Win$ applications.
Cheers.
