Jumping fields

[Guest]

I have to make a database with a form.
The purpose of the database is to scan barcodes of products with a handheld
barcode scanner.

The scanner works fine and reads the code.
But my question now is. Is het possible to make the form so that after I've
scanned the barcode that access automaticly selects the next field in line?

Hope you can help me.

Yes; set the barcode textbox's Auto Tab property to Yes. (This does
require that the field be of constant length and that the barcode
reader always fills the field).
