Tabbing from 'Header' section to 1st field in 'Detail' section?

Pat Dools

Hello,

Is there a way to utilize Tab Order to have Access progress from the last
field in the 'Header' to the first field in the 'Detail' section of the
current form? Currently, the data entry person has to mouse-click in the
first control in the 'Detail' section in order to get there, which is kind of
a pain.

Thank you.

Place an extra text box in the Form Header, so it is last in the Tab Order
for the section. You cannot set its Visible property to No, but you can make
it 0.01 inch wide.

In its Enter event, SetFocus to the desired control in the detail section.

Click to expand...

In fact, you can even make 0 inches wide and 0 inches tall, and it will
still work.
