[AccessD] Distinguishing Key Press

What I need it to do is if the Tab key is pressed to move to the next
field, if the Enter key is pressed to save the record and than print a
label of the information.

This is a mail tracking database, in the form they are able to enter the
information on the piece of mail that is coming in, lots of times the
same publication comes in, so they fill out all the imformation on the
publication once and all they want to be able to do is change the number
of the reciepient and be able to press enter and the label for the
distribution of the publication/Piece of mail is printed.  If they need
to change any information than pressing the Tab key will allow this.

I hope that makes better sense or maybe I am just muttering

Mike

If you'll pardon my saying so, it sounds like you're trying to code
around automatic behavior.  What exactly is it that you want to do
differently based on a tab or enter?   What do you have set as the
default behavior for Tools-->Options-->Advanced-->Move After Enter?

Hello Everyone,


Does anyone have something that they can share that can be used to
distinguish what key is pressed after updating a field on a form.

I want to be able to know if the Tab key is pressed or if the Enter key
was pressed.  I have to be able to run a different process if the Tab
key is pressed than I would if the Enter key is pressed.

Thanks in advance for any info shared.

Thanks,
