Most scanners have built in functionality that allows you to select the option whether an "ENTER" key is defaulted ON or OFF. Read the scanner documentation.

If that fails, I think you can add an event at the end of every combobox update to simply move to a new records / add a new record.

You've already been given a 'goos' answer, two, in fact!

Place this code in the OnChange event for your Combobox, replacing ComboBoxName, in the code, with the actual name of your Combobox:

Code:

Private Sub ComboBoxName_Change() DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End Sub
