We have a single table displayed in a multiline form view... we moved some
fields above the detail line into the form header line... now whenever we
enter a new record we have to click on top section (and the tab control works
for all those fields) but when it reaches the end of the records on top we
want it to go to the detail line and continue a tab control for the rest of
the table before reaching the end of that line and going to a new record
....can someone help with this?... I hope i'm explaining this right

Click to expand...

Could you explain why you have the controls in the two separate sections? It
almost sounds like you should have two tables related one to many, and have a
form (for the fields you have in the header) with a subform (for the other
fields).

That said... you can put a textbox last in the tab order in the header. Make
it one twip high and one twip wide and transparent - but it must have its
Visible property set and it must be Enabled. In its GotFocus event set the
focus to the first control in the detail section.
