Hello:

I'm using MS Access 2000. I have a main form with a large subform, a nested third tier subform on the main subform, and a second second tier subform on the main form. The problem I'm having is that after tabbing into the long subform, the screen does not automatically scroll with the "tab" key as it does on the main form. This forces the user to use the scroll bar to recenter the screen, which is frustrating. I've seen similar problems like this posted several times in numerous forums, but no answers. Can anyone help? Thanks, Tim

Thanks for the reply. i attached a modified, compressed version of hte database file. When you open the database, open a form called "Census Main" you can tab through the fields nomally and it is not a problem while on Section 2, which is the subform, and Section 3 which is a subform on the main subform. When you move the cursor to Section 4, however, and continue tabbing down, you will notice that the screen does not automatically shift down with the cursor, and the user is forced to recenter the screen using the scroll bar on the right.

Thansk for any help you can provide, Tim
