I have a form in Access 2003 that should only be working with a single record. I can set the Cycle property to Current Record, but the form still jumps to the next record when I press Enter. My first thought was a KeyPreview property, but I’m not seeing one. My other thought is maybe the KeyPress or KeyUp event, but I thought I’d ask in case of unintended consequences. Any ideas?
The Cycle property only affects the TAB key.
To control the behaviour of the Enter Key that’s a global property.
Go to Tools/Options – Keyboard tab and on ‘Move After Enter’ select ‘Next Field’
There are KeyPress and KeyDown events that you can use to trap the Enter key too but that’s more work.
