Hi Chipp,
Thanks for your reply. I had checked the tabstops. I found the
solution and feel kind of stupid. Guess my age is catching up (87 next
March).
Anyway, For some reason or other I had placed in my library scripts: on
tabKey -> select empty. It did just that!!! Deleted that handler and
all is OK.
We are still hanging in there.
Hope all is well with you and yours.
Regards .. Bob
