The answer depends on your screen. If you are in datasheet or tabular
view, the down arrow key will work for you. If you are in a form showing just a single record, PgDn will do it. Be aware that you will move to a new record in the field that you were in when you pressed the key. hth- Betsy |

It is a form|subform. I want to advance the form from the subform
(customerrders) after finishing an order for a customer. hotkey -- next customer. ArrowKeys, PgDn does not work. No combination of shift,alt or ctl helps either. Haven't been able to find info either. wrote in message oups.com... The answer depends on your screen. If you are in datasheet or tabular view, the down arrow key will work for you.

Try Ctrl-Tab to return to the customer form. Then use PgDn.

Another trick is to put a command button on your main form to go to the new
record. Set its Caption property to (say): &New Record Now Alt+N takes you to a new record in the main form, even if you are in the subform. The button's event procedure would be something like this: If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False If Not Me.NewRecord Then RunCommand acCmdRecordsGotoNew -- Allen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
