[WriteLog] Sweepstakes Field Moves

WriteLog worked very well for me in the CQWW Phone Contest.  I decided to 
check out CW by making a few contacts in the ARRL CW Sweepstakes.  It 
worked well with one exception --- for me.

I had difficulty making the move from the Check to the Section field.  When 
moving from each other field to the next field, the space bar is used to 
toggel you to the next field.  However, when moving from the Check to the 
Section field, the cursors advances on its own after entering the two digit 
check, without the use of the spacebar.

I found that I instinctively push the spacebar to move a next field -- I'm 
programed that way by using it in all previous field movements.  When I do 
this to go from Check to Section, the cursor wraps around to the Call Sign 
field and I repeatedly entered the section in front of the call sign.

Did anyone else find this difficult?  I'd prefer to always use the spacebar 
to make a field movement.
