Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
When you use the SendKeys statement to send keystrokes to the user
interface in Microsoft Access and you use the CTRL key designation (^)
in combination with uppercase characters, the action fails silently.
RESOLUTION
Use lowercase letters in SendKeys statements when simulating user
interface key combinations that use the CTRL key designation.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
