Larry, I've been pondering about the ampersand in form buttons and immediately tried using two on seeing your post but I still get an underscore. eg: "Save && Exit" gives me "Save_Exit".
It's not the end of the world as "and" will do (at the moment) but is there something else involved? Font maybe?
