¬	Alternate-double-click a letter to choose that as the mnemonic. 

You can set a mnemonic in any object that displays a title, such as a form, a text field, or a button. Users can select that object by holding down the Alternate key and pressing the mnemonic you've chosen for the object. In this way, you give your users the option of navigating through the interface through the keyboard instead of the mouse. 

¬

To delete a mnemonic, Alternate-double-click the letter again. 

Mnemonics, together with inter-field tabbing, allow users to navigate through objects in a window using only the keyboard. Inter-field tabbing allows users to select objects by tabbing. See Chapter 4 for more information.  ;../04_Connections/EnablingInterfieldTabbing.rtfd;;¬
