Ah, okay. But when you're filling in a form under the Windows
default model, you're not supposed to be entering tab characters
into text, any more than you're supposed to be entering arrow-key
characters. It's just an unsuitable model for your application.
I'm not saying the Windows GUI is very good, just that if you
have to deal with it, it must be on its own terms..
