For example:

- Under e-file PDF/Miscellaneous, "link to form" input field, I can type "46" to call the entry, but I have to use a mouse to select it.
- Under depreciation, "method" input field, I can type "85" to call the entry, but I have to use a mouse to make the selection stay.

It is a pain when I do a lot of them.

Similarly, there should be shortcut keys to jump to the same field in the next input screen (e.g., in Lacerte one could jump to the input line for 1065 Sch K-1 from partnership to partnership using, I believe,  CTRL+down arrow or something like that). That way if one needs to edit the inputs for multiple Schedules K-1, it can be done easily with a single compound keystroke, rather than clicking the tab for the next K-1, then selecting the sub-page with the correct line items and scrolling to the appropriate input box.
