Posts: 77                Been fussing over this for some time. Tried it on 
Bevel Buttons as well as Push buttons.

Three buttons with captions as follows ...
&Customer
&Order
&Parts

"C" ... "O" ... "P" are underlined (or should be) and should activate the 
button using Alt + one of those letters.
First problem....
Using Bevel Buttons, the underline appears when the app is run but Alt+C works 
and the other two don't.

Second problem...
Using Push Buttons, the underlines do not show when the app is run unless the 
Alt key is pressed. All of them work.

How do I resolve the issue of having the underlines appear ALL THE TIME on the 
Push buttons??

Why would one Bevel Button work using Alt but not the other two?

Location: South Portland, Maine                Perhaps something else is 
catching your accelerator keys on the BevelButtons. In a quick test here, I 
didn't have any trouble with accelerator keys on multiple BevelButtons working 
(at least on Windows 8).

As far as the PushButtons go, on Windows by default the underlines are only 
supposed to appear when Alt is pressed (just like with menus). You can change 
this behavior in the "Ease of Access Center" Control Panel. There is a setting 
there called "Underline keyboard shortcuts and access keys".
