How can I do this? I would also like to have some data flash if it out of
range. Is that posible?

You can use the ampersand (&) character in the Caption field to assign an Alt
key to a Command button. For a command button, cmdClickMe, for example,
assigning a caption of "&Click Me", would underline the C key and pressing
Alt+C on the form would be the equivalent of clicking the button. The Shift
and Control keys can be assigned for the database with the AutoKeys macro,
you can get more elaborate with VB, but the Alt might be sufficient for your
purposes.
 
....and as for the "flashing data question, read up on the form's Timer
event, in Access Help.
