Default navigating between mutliple pages of form

to all,

I am new to Access

I am aware that you can change pages by simply clicking
on the tab, however, I have been asked to create buttons
on the form to navigate throuht the pages.

I have a form with 3 pages that I created with the tab
control.
The form is named frmActivityReport
the pages are named pgCBP, pgPI, pgADM

How do I create a command button that will enable the
user to navigate between thes pages?

One of the options on a Tab Control is to display the tabs as buttons.
No code needed!

I've used short-cut keys to help navigation. Change the Name property of
each page, for example:
"pgCBP" to "&1 pgCBP"
"pgPI" to "&2 pgPI"
This will display the tab names as "1 pgCBP" and "2 pgPI", the "&" will not
be visible but it will cause the next character after it to be underlined.
This will allow you to change pages by holding down ALT while pressing the
corresponding underlined character key. ie:
ALT+1 = 1 pgCBP - focus on the pgCBP page
ALT+2 = 2 pgPI - focus on the pgPI page

No mouse required. (I love keyboard short-cuts)

I hope this gives you another option.
