Dear all, apologies for my lack of knowledge. I'm trying to create a form where hundreds of HUs can be input using a barcode reader and maintain focus and visibility on the new record, so it doesn't get hidden under the form (in the center of the screen). The database will be used on a 20" Windows tablet, which I currently do not have. I hope my question is clear. Can you suggest a solution for me? Thanks in advance. Best regards.

barcode readers are just another input device like a keyboard. all you should need to do is set focus to the field you want and scan the barcode.

I took a quick look at your attachment but could not see how it relates to your question. Suggest remove all the startup code and unrelated forms/tables etc. and provide clear instructions to replicate what you are trying to do.
