search for Keyboard Shortcuts in Access Help. also, recommend you don't
enter data directly into tables, or allow your users to. Forms are the
proper tool for interacting with your data.

Control (quote)

I suggest that you should not be using a table to enter or edit data.
Tables are just buckets of data and field definitions. Get in the habit of
using forms and queries.
