[AccessD] Tabbing to Another control

Just a quick thing. Did you double check the NAME field is what you think it is? Often the SOURCE OBJECT has the name you want and the NAME has something stupid like combobox1.

Sorry if you have already done this, but it just seems like the place to start.

cheers
Darryl.

Subject: [AccessD] Tabbing to Another control


I have a form called frmClient.
On it is a tab called tabClient.
On tabClient is a subform called sfrClientRevision
On sfrClientRevision is a tab called tabRevision with two pages - 
pgeSaving and pgeBudget

On pgeSaving is a subform called sfrClientInvestment
On sfrClientInvestment is a field called cboInvestmentType

On pgeBudget is a subform called sfrClientBudget
On sfrClientBudget is a tab called tabCashFlow
On tabCashFlow is a page called pgeSummary
On pgeSummary is a field called txtpgeSummaryLast

What I would like to do is this: When txtpgeSummaryLast is tabbed 
into, then the focus automatically moves to cboInvestmentType.

What I have tried on the OnEnter event of txtpgeSummaryLast is this:

     DoCmd.GoToControl "sfrClientRevision"
     DoCmd.GoToControl "tabRevision"     <-- Error here
     DoCmd.GoToPage "pgeSaving"
     DoCmd.GoToControl "sfrClientInvestment"
     DoCmd.GoToControl "cboInvestmentType"

The error message I get is No 2109: There is no field named 
"tabRevision" in the current record.

I have also tried:

     Forms!frmClient.SetFocus
     Forms!frmClient!sfrClientRevision.SetFocus
     Forms!frmClient!sfrClientRevision.Forms!sfrClientInvestment.SetFocus 
<-- Error here

The error message I get is No 438: Object doesn't support this 
property or method.

How can I get from txtpgeSummaryLast to cboInvestmentType?
