A dialog box (like the samples in Figure 4.15) appears when you need to make
selections and enter further information. You can move between dialog items by
tapping on them with your stylus, or by pressing the arrow keys and the [TAB] key
([SHIFT] [TAB] moves the cursor backwards).

Note: You can use the stylus to tap on an element in a dialog box to select or
deselect it, display drop-down menu items, save your selections, and
so on.
Dialog boxes contain one or more of the following elements:
Tab: A tab separates different elements of a dialog box. Press the [TAB] key until a
tab in the dialog box is highlighted. To display adjoining tabs, press the [RIGHT] or
[LEFT] arrow key. To display the information in the next tab from anywhere in the
window, press [CTRL] [TAB].
Textbo x: A textbox requires that you type information. Press the [TAB] key to
highlight the textbox and then type the appropriate information.
Drop-down: This type of menu is identified by up and down arrows next to the
drop-down menu to indicate that additional options are available. Press the [TAB]
key to highlight the menu, and use the arrow keys on your keyboard to cycle
through the options.
