I have a button containing the VB command Me.Notes = Me.Notes &
Format(Date, "dd-mm-yyyy") to have a date filled in a field. I want it
automatically jump to the next field, after the date is inserted. How?


By the way, more nicer is that when I start a new record, the date is
automatically inserted and the cursor jumps to the next field. So,
without a push button.

Set the default of the date control to =Date() for just the date, or =Now()
for date and time. With the form in Design View, on the Menu, View | Tab
Order to set the tab order to bypass the date Control.
