Being able to tab through all fields

You may find that you cannot tab to a drop-down list box (e.g. a list of States) when entering data in a form. Use System Preferences to change this behavior:

  1. Open System Preferences.
  2. Click on Keyboard and Mouse.
  3. Click on the Keyboard Shortcuts tab.
  4. At the bottom, click on the radio button representing All Controls.
  5. Close System Preferences.

Thank you, thank you!!! I can't believe Apple doesn't default this action. It has been so annoying and I thought I just had to live with it. Apple OS is superior to Windows in so many ways, but Apple still has many obvious problems. Thanks again.
