Docmd: GoToControl

[Guest]

Have a form called customers. Names, address etc. Listbox called
SelectCustomer.

And a subform called: CustomerOrders.

In the Subform is a field called Date.

What I want to do is, after selecting customer name in SelectCustomer
listbox on the main form to go straight to the field Date in the subform and
as a new record aswell.

Sofar I have gone to the properties of the list box SelectCustomer and in
the after update property selected Docmd.GoToControl..........what is the
syntax after that?

Docmd.GoToControl ????????????

SetFocus is the preferred method.

Try:

Me.CustomerOrders.SetFocus
Me.CustomerOrders.Form.[Date].SetFocus
