    Field Box 1 Line Big

    I have field boxes in my form that are 1 line big as far as what is being displayed for the user to see. If I press tab it goes to the next field box. If I press enter, the cursor will drop down, making the data look like it disappeared. How do I format the field box to not do this? I just don't want the user to get confused and type the same thing again in the field box.

    Check the textbox Enter Key Behavior property on the Other tab of Property Sheet. If it says New Line in Field, change it to Default.

    Thank you very much. Is there a legend or something I look to see what each property does?

    Search Access Help or web, unless you have a very thorough reference book.
