    Odd behavior when hitting "enter"


    I am having issues with one of my forms, I'm hoping someone can help me with.

    The form tracks my business referral sources, it has fields like name, address, phone number, etc. It also has a large text box for notes. I use this to track my contact with them and what business they send. When I enter something in the text box and hit "enter" to start another line the database switches to the next record. I have looked at the properties and nothing is in the "on enter" event field and none of my other forms similar to this cause this to happen. Anyone have an idea what is wrong?

    Thanks,
    Brad

    Look at the properties:

    EnterKeyBehavior - for the textbox

    Cycle - for the form

    Thanks June 7! The "EnterKeyBehavior" was set on "default" changing it to "enter new line" fixed it. Not sure how I over looked that.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
