Underline letter on button as shortcut to use

[cbielich]

This is what I am asking

In many programs there are buttons that have a letter underlined, and
when pressing Alt & the underlined letter then you will activate that
button. For instance and button called Cancel with the "C" underlined.
I was wondering if this is possible to do with access in both buttons
and tab's. Let me know

Yep: include an ampersand in the Caption of the attached label, e.g.:
&Cancel

Preceed the letter with an ampersand, e.g. "E&xit", "&Cancel", etc. To
get an ampersand into a label, use two ampersands, e.g. "Smith &&
Wesson".
