    Tab or Enter keys


    Started this new job about two weeks ago. After the office people found out that I was pretty good in Excel they been hitting me up to fine tune some of their stuff. One girl has a Access DB that has an issue when she had to upgrade to a new computer. Window 7 I'm thinking. She said that in her forms, before the upgrade she could enter data and hit the enter key and it would go to the next new record without going through all the fields. Now hitting the enter key just tabs to the next field and she has to do this through all the fields in that record, then it goes to the next record. Not every field has to have data in it all the times. So is there some code that will by hitting the enter key move to the next new record? Its been awhile with Access for me and I hope I got all terms correct.
