Best way to save changes for a complex form

I am working with a Access 2003 application someone else created and left unfinished. In this situation, a user can click a search button on one form (based on criteria the user chose), and this will bring up another (very complex bound form). This form will show where the user can scroll thru hundreds of records. And, for each record, there is a tab control where you will see 13 pages. And, each page can have as many as 0-2 subforms. And don't even ask me about the possible number of text, list, and combo boxes that exist. Okay, right now, it is set up for, I guess you could say, the default Access save method - where the user can make a change at any time to any field and it will be saved. Do I need to leave it this way because of the complexity? Or is there a better way to code and organize the way users can save changes? Thanks in advance.
