Shortcut keys won't work on menu bar on specific form?

[Rico]

Hello,

I have an unusual issue that I can't seem to resolve. I have a menu bar
that has short cut keys assigned to teh menu groups (&File, &Administration,
&Maintenance). The shortcut keys work fine in the database window, but when
i open up one form, they don't work at all. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Rick

Probably the form is a "bound" form which means that the user is
bound to that form until it is closed (or made invisible). If you
want the user to access the menu bar while the form is loaded, it
must not be a bound form.
