tabs in an add-in

Hi, I have created a word add-in with VB.NET. It opens a form for the user
to fill out.. my problem is that the Tabs do not work (some do, but 90% of
them do not). I thought maybe I have screwed them up from endless
changing,but this isn't the case. I have rebuilt a simple one from scratch
and I get the same behavior.. and if I copy and paste (or just use the
existing form in a new windows application) the tabs all work.

Has anyone seen this behavior, and is there a way I can get my tabs to work?

I found if I make the form modal using ShowDialog() the tabs function
again... this however isn't an option for me.

I also turned on the keyPreview property of the form, which allowed me to
add an Overrides OnKeyPressed routine, then I can use
myBase.ProcessTabs(true), and they will tab as expected.. But the shift+tab
does not work.

Can anyone point me to some code that would allow me to detect and handle
the shift+tab?

Thanks much,
--
