Did you know that you can use the "&" character for captions to be used as "&" character as is, and not as the "_" accelerator character? Technically, the "&" character in captions is used for the accelerator character when using the [Alt]+Character as hot key (accelerator). A new "Show Accelerator Character" setting has been added to show "&" as accelerator character "_" or "&" as is, if you wish. The following form controls properties are enhanced with such setting: . Push Button . Bit Button . Speed Button . Office Button . Drop-Down Menu Button . Enhanced Speed Button . Enhanced Tab Control However, if you wish to display the "&" character as is, you will have to un-check the default (checked) "Show Accelerator Character" setting.
