Default "Auto Repeat" feature on command buttons

I'm coding in Access 97. Because I needed to customize the way a particular
form navigates through records, I created and coded my own record navigation
buttons. This works fine except for one thing. I'd like them to behave the
same way the "real" navigation buttons work when the user keeps one of them
down: automatically repeating.

In the Acc97 help files, the Auto Repeat property of a command button is
described. It is specifically stated that despite setting it to "Yes", if
the event handler changes the current record, the Auto Repeat property has
no effect. Well, they weren't lying!

Is there any way to get around this?
