Can someone please explain  -style to me?  In the gui documentation, I 
see
it referred to in terms of AxWindow but not Window.  Can it be used for
both?  How about a DialogBox?

Also, where can I find info on the other styles, like -addstyle,  -
pushstyle, -remstyle, -popstyle, -exstyle, -exaddstyle, -expushstyle, -
exremstyle, -expopstyle?

I have been trying to get my Tab key to traverse textfields on a webform
in Internet Explorer, which is embedded in my $mainWindow via an 
AxWindow.
 According to my interpretation of Microsoft's definitions for windows
functions, the CreateWindowEx sections says the parent window would
receive a window style (I don't know whether this is performed in
win32-gui as a -style or -exstyle, or some other method) of
WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT.  Microsoft's definition of 
WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT reads:
"The window itself contains child windows that should take part in 
dialog
box navigation. If this style is specified, the dialog manager recurses
into children of this window when performing navigation operations 
such as
handling the TAB key, an arrow key, or a keyboard mnemonic."

I have tried several variations, changing from -style => 
WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT, -exstyle => WS_EX_CONTENTPARENT, 
to -expushstyle => WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT, but I have had no 
success.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
