Stop form from closing when I press Enter
Every form I have closes automatically if I press enter.
From what I can tell - that's just how Access is set up. Is there a way to change this setting? Or can I insert a Macro into the "On Close" Event on my form that will give me the option to exit or continue? HELP!

You did not say what version of Access you have. Access 2007 you click on
Office button, at bottom of pave select Access Options - Advanced - Editing and then one of three choices - Don't move, Next field, Next record. Earlier versions click on Tools - i think it was Options - Advanced - ... -- Build a little, test a little. "RebeccaKT" wrote: Every form I have closes automatically if I press enter.

There is no setting in Access to autoclose a form.My guess is that you have
a close button on your form that is closing the form. Try changing the Tab stop property of the button from no to yes. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "RebeccaKT" wrote in message ...

Or can I insert a Macro into the "On Close" Event on my form that will give me the option to exit or continue? This is not normal Access behavior. You mean to say that every form actually closes, and disappears from the screen, when you press Enter? Do you by any change have a "close" button on your form, with its Default property (on the Other tab of its property sheet) set to Yes? -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP Access tips: www.datagnostics.com/tips.html (please reply to the newsgroup)
