Setting Hot Keys in MS Access 2000

Hi,

I had created a MS Access form. The form has an "Save" and a "Close"
button. I would like to set short cut keys for these buttons as "Ctrl
+ S" and "Ctrl + C" keys.

I heard that Send keys would work...But not sure How to use them in MS
Access forms.

Please provide me some information on How to proceed with this.

Thanks
Aravind.

Set the captions of your buttons to &Save and &Close.
They will display with the first letter underlined, and your short cut keys
will work as you desire.
