KeyPress??

Crysta #1 / 2	KeyPress?? How do you use the KeyPress event? I want to detect when the user presses Enter and convert it to a TAB. I can only get the field's AfterUpdate event to work when the user presses TAB. I've tried to put it on OnExit, BeforeUpdate, etc. None really work, so I want to harvest the actual keyboard command. Either way, I'd still like to learn how to use the KeyPress events. I think eventually, I could use it. Any suggestions? Crystal

Steve Conwa #2 / 2	KeyPress?? Hi Crystal, In the form's On Key Press event you can use: If KeyAscii = 13 Then KeyAscii = 9 make sure you set the form's Key Preview property to Yes. You can search google on Ascii+Codes to get the ascii equivalents. HTH Steve C Quote: > How do you use the KeyPress event? I want to detect when > the user presses Enter and convert it to a TAB.
