Access 2002 Tab Form slips to next record when trying to delete re

[Guest]

I have a large record displayed on a tab control with two tabs. When I try
to delete the record, the record will slip to the next record in the
sequence. If I do delete, it will delete the wrong record. Does anyone have
any suggestions?

I think you may simply be misunderstanding the way that deletion works.
When you delete a record, Access actually deletes the record (and stores it
in a temporary buffer) BEFORE it asks you to confirm the deletion. This is
why the record disappears. If you confirm the deletion, the temporary
buffer is cleared. If you don't confirm the deletion, Access restores the
record from the temporary buffer, and it reappears!
