How to prevent moving to next record

N

Nancy

I have a form with several text boxes. Some are
displaying data; some are input.

If I continue to hit the tab key, it will eventually go to
the next record in the recordset, instead of going back to
the first text box.

How can I prevent the form from moving to the next record?

There is a combo box for the user to select the next
customer they want to review.

Thank you for any suggestions.

If you're not using this form to create new entries (data entry), then use
the filter to lock it down to a specific record and set the 'Allow
Additions' property to false.

Change the form's Cycle property from "All Records" to "Current Record".
