I'm using 10.45 and have found the following annoying behavior when using the 
space bar to chagne fields in the entry window.  When in the call field 
pressing space takes you to the next necessary field (usually skipping the RST 
field).  Another space takes you to the next necessary field (if there is one). 
 Another space takes you to the last field in the entry window, which is 
usually the country name (in dx tests).  To get back to the call I have to hit 
tab, sometiems multiple times (to pass the serial numeber etc).  Is there an 
INI setting I have wrong?  It's very annoying to have to think about hitting 
the tab key in the middle of a run to correct a call.

Second question.  I was fooling around in BARTG this weekend, and when I click 
on a callsign in the RTTY window, it puts it in the call field and moves the 
cursor to the RST field.  I can't tell you how many times I replaced teh RST 
with the serial # and put the time in the serial number field.  That caused a 
mess mid qso!  The cursor should either stay in the call field, requiring you 
to hit space to get to the next reqired field, or should go directly to the 
next required field - not the RST field which we rarely edit.  Again, am I 
missing an INI setting that will fix this?
