Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------
1. Create a new Windows CE pro.
2. Place two Labels and two TextBoxes on Form1.
3. Change the TabIndex of the controls as follows:
- Label1.TabIndex = 0
- Text1.TabIndex = 1
- Label2.TabIndex = 2
- Text2.TabIndex = 3
4. Set the Caption property of Label1 to "&1."
5. Set the Caption property of Label2 to "&a."
6. Run the application.
If you run the application in emulation, you are able to switch between Text1 and
Text2 by pressing ALT+1 and ALT+A key combinations respectively.
If you run the application on a device, you are not able to switch to Text1 using
the ALT+1 keyboard shortcut. Instead, you need to use the CTRL+ALT+1 key
combination.
