Form automatically tabs out of field while typing

[Maverick]

I have my main data entry form with the textbox Title. The control source is
Title from a table. There are no events on this textbox. Every time a new
record is created, the focus is set to the textbox (which is Tab Order 0).
When the user is entering text into the textbox, it suddenly sets focus to
another textbox named Description (Tab Order 20). It doesn't do this after a
set number of characters and the Auto Tab function is set to No. The data
entered never reaches the maximum characters set in the control source's
table. Also, this doesn't seem to happen on a record that is not newly
created.

I've tried creating a new textbox with the same control source but named
Title2. I set this new textbox to Tab Order 0 and I have the same issue. This
makes absolutely no sense to me. I will continue to try various approaches,
but if anyone has any suggestions, I could save myself a trip to the looney
bin.

This happens in both Access 2003 and 2007 using either Windows XP or Vista.

Thanks.

By any chance do you have a Timer running on any of your open forms?

I have no timers running. Additionally, there are no events that reference
the textbox named Description at all.
