Default navigating to different records in a read only form

Thanks for the sample code, Marsh. It will also help me in another area.

Two questions.

1. The expression "ctl.Locked = OnOff" - I haven't seen that before. Is
that a toggle switch that turns the Locked property of a control on and off
each time it executes?

2. Using the Tag property to identify which controls should be locked seems
to be a great way to determine which ones are locked if you don't want to
lock all of them. But if you want to lock or unlock all of them at once,
wouldn't it be a valid, and possible simpler, approach to turn the form's
AllowEdits property on or off, as per Dirk's suggestion?
