I can tab through the controls on a form to a subform.

But once in the subform, how do I tab back to the main form and remain on
the same record?
 
Thanks Ken

Actually that will put me on the main form but move me to the next or new record. To move to the mainform on the same record, I need to use SHIFT + CTRL + TAB

Here is a summary of the short cuts I found useful for data entry:

Move to first record: CTRL + HOME

Move to last record: CTRL + END

Move to new record: CTRL + +

Move to next record: PGUP

Move to previous record: PGDN

Tab from subform back to mainform: SHIFT + CTRL + TAB
 
Sorry...was going from memory.

Thanks for posting the info.
