Pressing F7

[irade92]

Hi
after pressing F7 in a control field (barcode - first field) I got this message (see Pic_2). when pressing F5 everything is ok.
Any suggestions?

what do you expect to happen when you press F5 or F7?

F5 refreshed the form, F7 activates the spell checker - and the message is simply saying the action has been completed

see this link for all the standard hot key actions

All hotkeys - Microsoft Access Hotkeys - Keyboard Shortcuts

Pressing F5 is closing the customer receipt, custumer is paying cash and is printing fiscal receipt. Pressing F7 is also closing customer receipt but customer is paying by Card and also printing fiscal receoipt.. I had another similar form and there is no problem overthere. I tried to analize where is the problem between this two forms but no success.. So now I need advice hot to exclude this message that appear at the end of the operation. Also I use F5, F6, F10 but not any message appear so far.

so sounds like you have assigned different actions to these keys since from your comments, they are form specific. I would check you have actually assigned the new action(s) since they appear to be still using the default

I would be really leary of assigning different meanings to function keys or key combinations. Pressing a button is no more trouble than pressing f5. Sometimes when creating a form for heads down data entry, you might want to have a save and move on feature. The enter key is the most appropriate key stroke for that functionality. It is rarely used in forms because forms don't tend to have paragraphs of text so the enter key is most useful for saving and moving to the next record.
