SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Team Manager and Microsoft Team Manager for team members, the CTRL+TAB and SHIFT+CTRL+TAB key combinations in most tabbed dialog boxes do not cycle through the tabs as expected. Instead, they have the same effect as pressing TAB and SHIFT+TAB.

CTRL+TAB and SHIFT+CTRL+TAB do behave as expected in the Team Manager Move Views and More Subjects dialog boxes.

MORE INFORMATION

In many Windows-based applications, pressing the CTRL+TAB key combination in a tabbed dialog box cycles through the tabs in the forward (left to right) direction, and SHIFT+CTRL+TAB cycles in the reverse direction.

WORKAROUND

An alternative keyboard technique to cycle through the tabs in a dialog box is to press the TAB key until one of the tabs is selected (has a dotted line around the tab name), and then to press the LEFT or RIGHT ARROW keys.
