There is nothing appropriate about it, it is good to use what works most 
efficiently for you.  I find using regular arrows and tabs extremely efficient.

Hi, John. Never occurred to me to use the tab key. I'm not  clear when its 
appropriate to use the basic keystrokes available, those being tab, enter, and 
vo keys with the arrows. I have hints turned on which helps a bit. I imagine a 
year from now all this will be just instinctive.
Make a long story short, your message helped quite a bitl.
