Default "Tab" Keypress Function

Can I ask if it is possible to go in sequence of fields when I press "Tab" in
a form? For me now, by pressing "Tab" to jump to the next field, the focus
go here and there and not in the sequence I want. Sometime it even move to
next record after it go to the end of the field for the record. Can someone
help me with it? Thanks.

Seikyo,

While in form design view, go View Tab Order. I the window that pops
up, you can click on Auto order, or you can move each control up or down
(drag and drop woth the mouse) to change the sequence.

To prevent going to the next record while moving around with tab, open
the form's Properties, tab Other, and change the Cycle property setting
from All Records (default) to Current Record.

HTH,
Nikos
