Hi again,<br><br>Is there a way to disable the "Enter" key in a form?? I have users complaining that before they can finish entering all records in the textboxes, sometimes they will hit enter by accident, and imcomplete records get entered into the table. THanks a lot once again!!!

You can go into Opions, and set the Enter Key behaviour (also, all those options can be set dynamically using Application.setoption)<br><br>You probably want to set the behavior to "Next Field". <br><br>Also, you can set the Form.Cycle property to CurrentRecord.<br><br>Lastly, but to be avoided, you can trap the enter key on the keydown event and set the keycode to 0.<br><br>--Jim
