menu accel conflict with entry

["David L" <idht4n hotmail com>]

Hi,

I'm a newbie trying to add an entry box in the same
window with a menu with accel keys.  I've found that
when I type into the text entry box, I can't enter letters
used by the menu.  How do I make the entry box
have priority over the menu when it is selected?
The file below demonstrates my problem... I can't
enter an 'n' into the entry box.

Another question about menu accel... how do I make
the menu show lower case letters when the accel key
is lower case?

Thanks...

          David
