Tab order - header to detail

S

Stephanie

Hi. I added a lookup field in the header of my form. I
set focus on that field. The way it is now, if I open the
form and want to enter a new record I have to move the
cursor down to the details section and then the details
tab order takes over.

Is there any way to use "tab" to get from the header into
the details section?

Thanks,
Stephanie

Add another text box to the Form Header section.
In its GotFocus event, SetFocus to a control in the Detail section.
You can make this text box very small.
