I have a database that our employees use to check in or out equipment. Currently, when you check a device in or out, you must do the following: Scan the associates' barcode, Press Enter, Scan the RF device’s barcode, Press Enter and then Press Enter again for the transaction to record. What I want is a way to eliminate the first two instances of pressing the Enter key. I tried by adding a Check Digit to each of the two barcodes scanned but that didn’t work. I want it to be kind of any “automatic next field" but can't figure out how to do it...

Any ideas???
 
Forget access, program your barcode scanner to add an enter after reading the barcode.
