Tab and Esc keys after entering a Subform

[MattMeat]

Hi Everybody!

I just finished searching the FAQ but I couldn't find an answer to my question.

I have a form called "Service Order Entry" which contains one subform entitled "MemoItems".
After I enter the subform by using "Tab", I am not allowed to tab out of the subform and on to the next field.

Something similar happens with "Esc". After entering the subform, I cannot cancel out the record with "Esc". Even if I mouse over to one of the Main form's fields, the "Esc" will not work.

I was hoping just to be able to "Tab" through the subform and to use the "Esc" just as I would in the main form:

"Tab" stops on the subform and allows me to exit when pressed again.

"Esc" pressed once cancels out of the subform, pressed twice, it cancels the entire record.

Forgive me if I am not being clear, but this is the best way I know how to explain this problem. I'm new to Access.

Thank You,
Matt
