    Control "where to go" with Enter key on last tab-ordered text-box on a form

    I have a form whose ControlSource is a registry of profiles that is filtered to a single record. The tabs are "auto-ordered". As expected, when I press "Enter" on any of the text-box controls the focus advances to the next text-box according to the tab order. However, when I press "Enter" on the last text-box in the tab order, the focus moves to the first text-box but clears all of the text-boxes. I'm assuming the form is poised to receive data for a new record? In any case, I want the reaction to an "Enter" action to remain on the current record with the focus to follow a re-cycling of the tab order. I don't find an "Enter" event in the form's property sheet.
    Thanks,


    Bill

    First time experience with "this one". One can teach old dogs new tricks.

    Yes! Lots of ridiculous plaid shots and non-matching shirts are abounding!

    Thanks,

    LOL! You'll be happy to know I don't own any plaid shorts.
