Yeah that's something that bugs me too, but I suppose it makes sense. The
ActiveX control is sort of like its own mini-program so it probably shou;dm't
automatically pass keystrokes back to the container.

You can write generic code to forward certain keystrokes (ALT and Fx keys)
to the form and have them handled there.
