Not sure if this is possible, but...

Hello all!

I was wondering if you can trap a CR/LF character, and force a form to go to a new record. Here's what I want to do: I have a hand-held bar-code scanner, and I want to create a new record in my database every time I scan in a barcode. Is this even possible? If it is, your help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You might try using the AfterUpdate event of the control into which you're
putting the bar code results:

Private Sub BarCodeControlName_AfterUpdate()
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordGoToNew
End Sub
