Authority Table

NotGood@All

I have a table with 5 memo fields. Each field has a very large description
of some info. What I would like to do is click a cmdbutton “next†or
“Previous†and have the next field populate the form as it relates to that
Judge’s authority. Is that possible ?

Are you storing a different memo field for *each judge*? What should the
"next" button do - move to a different record, or a different field?

Hi John. I would like it to move to the field, same record

Use code like

Me.controlname.SetFocus

in the button's click event.

I still don't understand your table structure. What are these five memo
fields??

The table is a normal table, the problem is that 5 fields are memo field,
each of the 5 has about 40 lines of text to be entered, so any form I come up
with looks bad, even making the form large looks bad. What I would like to
do is bring up 1 field at a time, enter the data, click a button and move to
the next field. I would like to use the same form just have the field show
up on demand

In that case put a Tab Control on the form, with five tab pages; one textbox
on each page.
