Tom,
Pressing Enter again while in forms mode will activate the default button,
which is usually the send command. That will take you out of forms mode, but
it is different than going out of forms mode without activating the button.
On a desktop, you go out of forms mode with the plus key on your numpad.

Steve:
It seems like I can get out of forms mode with the laptop by just hitting
the enter key again.
So, I think I'm all set at least for now.
As I said to others on the list, I'm not sure where I heard of the second
top key on the number pad for getting into forms mode, but the enter key
sure is easier.
Thanks, and best 73 from Tom Behler: KB8TYJ
