>>>At a recent seminar, Tamor Granor recommended using hot keys on labels to navigate to their related text boxes. I just tried this for a form with several parameters and, although they showed up at design time, they were nonexistent at run time. My assumption is that they get overridden if you have a menu item with the same hot key, but I noted that doesn’t happen with command buttons on the form.

No, the theory is that the cursor moves to the next control that can get focus, in this case, the associated text box assuming its the next control in the tab order.
