This doesn't always work. Like RJ, I notice that when you open some combo boxes and press Alt-down arrow, the first item is immediately selected and you are taken out of forms mode before you have a chance to arrow down to the item you actually want. I haven't figured out a way around this glitch myself, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
