# Moving between form fields: there and back

I think many more or less *prosunuti* people, as we say in Ukraine (savvy, that is), know that the **Tab** key moves you to the next field of a form, when you're filling in a questionnaire, say, or signing up for yet another social network.

But I recently discovered, completely by accident, that you can also move to the previous field by holding **Shift+Tab**.

A useful thing, IMHO. Though I'm not used to it yet.
