tab, enter in textboxes (1 Viewer)

[odun]

Hello all,

Thanks to all the folks that have helped with my posts in the past.
I have 2 questions.
I have a form with textboxes.

When I tab from one textbox to the other, the tab goes to one of the buttons on the page. How do I tab from one textbox to another.

Also, I have a textbox for memo. I would like to press enter and go to the next line in that textbox.

Thank you very much.

you need to set up the tab order for the form.

I would like to press enter and go to the next line in that textbox.

hold 'shift' while pressing return

Thanks. I have the tab order set.
But to move to the next line in a text box, the hold shift key and enter does not work.

my fault...thinking of other things...

in the properties of the test box, change the default enter key behavior to "add new line in field"

<Ctrl> Enter will also work!

Thanks guys, both worked.

Right on! I didn't know there was a way to change the Enter key property. Without opening a DB and playing with it, does changing that property effect the Enter key for just that control or for the entire program?
