I have a button on "Form A" in the right margin of every record in my
recordset. When you click on a button, a dialog box ("Form B") pops
up that gives more details about that particular record.
The problem is that when I close the dialog, the cursor jumps to the
beginning of the recordset on "Form A". I want it to go back to the
record where I pressed the button.
What's the best way to set the focus to a particular record when
closing "Form B"?

The default behavior is that the current record will stay currrent.
The fact that it is jumping back to the first record suggests that you have
some code or macro that is causing the form to Requery. Remove that code.

I did have a DoCmd.Requery statement in the OnClose event of Form B
and so I took it out as you suggested. Still jumps to the start of
the recordset though and I can find any other places where a requery
is being issued after the transition to Form A.
Is there a way to force the focus back to the orignal record? The default behavior is that the current record will stay currrent.

If you know the primary key value of the record you are looking for, you can
FindFirst on the form's RecordsetClone, but it would be better to track down
why the problem occurred if possible.

Folks,
I'm working on a contact name/address database whereby a slimed down list is
shown in the main window. When a record is selected, the complete record is
displayed in a new window via a call to window.open
As opposed to closing and re-opening new windows, I would prefer that when
the user is finished reading the complete record, they can click a link
whereby the main window is sent in to focus.

OK, this is a stupid thing, but I can't seem to get this to work. I have a

has code in the AfterUpdate event which adds a record to the subform (based
on the value of the combo box) and requeries the subform control. I want the

I've tried working with the SelectedIndices and Items.Selected
attributes to get the problem to go away, but not having any luck.
Questions I have are:
1) How do you move (using code) the focus Rectangle when your Selected
Index changes ?
2) If there are no selected rows, can that focus rectangle be removed?
3) What other quirks exist in this simple example I might need to code
for ?

On the Form_AfterUpdate event of the subform, I run some code that

I hope this is an easy question for someone out there. In Access 2000…I have a MainForm with a tab control (MAIN TABS) with 7 tabs.
Within each tab is a SubForm.
Within each SubForm is a tab control (TabCtl0) with 2-6 tabs.
Within each TabCtl0, each tab contains a SubSubForm.
Each record in the MainForm has an ID Number; the SubForms are bound to that ID Number, and the SubSubForms are bound to that ID Number in the SubForms.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
