How can I make the "ENTER KEY" perform like the "TAB KEY" in a "TEXT BOX" Control on a Data Access Page?

If a user presses the "ENTER KEY" after the data is entered, it appears that the information is erased. I would like this action to simply advance the user to the next Control on the Page.

Is there a property of the TEXT BOX Control to accomplish this?
 
you can specify the action you want - whatever it may be - at the On_Enter event with an event procedure,

At the text box specified, go to properties, click on the event tab and add an event procedure at the On Enter event

Thank you sq284 for your response, however, I am comfused with your answer.

In the properties of a Data Access Page, there is no EVENT TAB option on any of the controls??

This is why, I am confused about how to add Event procedures to the Pages I have created.
