i want to go to a particular record on a form. i have to move to a control
that's bound to the field that i want i want to select, then do a
"DoCmd.FindRecord x", then go back to the control i was on. (if anyone knows
a less cumbersome way to do this, please let me know.) the control i have to
move to in order to do the "findrecord" is one that i don't want the user to
see because it's value isn't useful to them - it's only a record identifier
used for implementation - so i've put that control behind another one and
haven't made it a tab stop. the trouble is that when i go to it to do the
findrecord, it appears visible briefly. people ask me about this and it
looks strange. i tried turning painting off on the form but this doesn't
have any effect. any suggestions? help is greatly appreciated.
