I've posted once on this subject, with no reply. I thought I'd try
again in a different format.

I'm using the code below to act like the Tab Key to go between Form
Fields.
The problem is that when using the Enter Key, the Form Fields are not
Formatted, as they are with the Tab Key.

Please, someone copy this code into a blank worksheet and try it
yourself, format some Form Fields, and tell me why the code is not
formatting the Form Fields. By the way, after using the Enter Key, if
I go back to the previous Form Field by using the left arrow or mouse,
for example and then exit the Form Field with a right arrow or Tab
Key, the Field will then show the proper formatting.

Thanks for your help,
Bernie
