To move quickly to an item on a window, use its accelerator key. Accelerator keys are key combinations that are formed from pressing the ALT key and another key. This other key is the underlined character in the label for the box or item you want to navigate to.
When there is more than one box on a window with the same underline character, press ALT + (underlined character) repeatedly until the box you want has focus.
