Tab Order
in [Form]
|
From: Rosco on 4 Jun 2010 09:33 In Access 2003, I have a continuous form, with several text boxes, 4 of which are user editable, and 4 check boxes. Everything works as it is supposes to, except when I tab through a record, if a change is made in either a check box or text box, when tab is pressed again, the focus goes to the first field of the first record, rather than the next field in the current record, or in the case of the last field of a record, the next record, as I would expect. It's probably a simple setting I'm missing, but I've not run into this issue before, so any thoughts are appreciated.
From: Jeanette Cunningham on 4 Jun 2010 18:30 What settings do you have for tab stops for each textbox and checkbox? What is the tab order for the form's detail section? Do you have the form's cycle property set to All Records or Current Record? Do you have any code that sets focus to any textbox or checkbox?

I'd go into the code module for the form and enter Requiry into the Find box and see what shows up. -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!

From: Rosco on 7 Jun 2010 11:11 Hi Jeannete, Thanks for the response. 1. Tab stop Yes on the 6 controls that are editable no on the rest 2. Tab Index=0-5 3. Tab Order reflects the Tab Index 4. Cycle property set to All records 5. No,there is no set focus code.
