CCMDB.accdb keyboard shortcuts

Using the mouse/trackpad to navigate through CCMDB.mdb can be tricky and slow, so many fields can be accessed with keyboard shortcuts. Generally, if there is an underlined letter in the label of a field or on a button, then clicking alt and the letter will take you there.

Viewer Shortcuts

In the viewer there are many more fields than there are letters, so only some fields are accessible. I tried to make the most of this by keeping in mind that the minimal data set gets filled in at the start, so it should not need to be accessed much after that, and the fact that successive fields can be accessed by tabbing (e.g. alt-x to the field and then tab twice to get two fields futher). Here is what I used, but I am open to suggestions what to change.

• alt-A - Apache Tab
• alt-B - Bathing ADL, tab to other ADLs
• alt-C -
• alt-D - Diagnoses Tab
• alt-E - Adm Date, tab to other dt/tms
• alt-F - Final Check
• alt-G - Glasgow Coma Scale Eye, tab to Motor and Verbal
• alt-H - Heart Rate, tab to Resp Rate and Temperature
• alt-I - Admit From, tab to the fields below it
• alt-J -
• alt-K -
• alt-L - Labs Tab
• alt-M - Admit Type, tab to Chronic
• alt-N - Na field, tab to rest of chemistry
• alt-O - Record field
• alt-P - Pharmacy Tab
• alt-Q -
• alt-R - Registry Tab
• alt-S -
• alt-T - Temp Studies Tab
• alt-U -
• alt-V - Var1, tab to other Vars
• alt-W -
• alt-X - Survive/Expire
• alt-Y - SysBP, tab to Dias BP
• alt-Z - Zerial (ya I know serial is not spelled that way...), tab to remainder of first row

Keep in mind that the labels have these letters underlined, so maybe save a tree and don't print this.
