How do I control the Tab function in a form?
I have created a form from one table. I placed the various fields on the form
that made data entry easy. The field placement is different than how they appear in the table. I want to be able to tab left to right on the form and then down to the next row. Currently tab hops all over the form. I am not a programmer, so I have not created any code.

With the form in design view right-click on the small gray square in the upper left and choose Tab Order from the list of options. -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message.

When you are in the form in design mode, go to View - tab order. There you
can select the fields and drag and drop them in the order you want. "JenHowe" wrote: I have created a form from one table. I placed the various fields on the form that made data entry easy.
