Tab movement between fields in a form

I have a form with two subforms. Is there a way to control how the Tab key moves between fields? Especially those movement from field to field between subforms for data entry?

Can you be more specific. Do you mean the tab order for instance? If you do then all you need to do is right-click the form in design mode, select "tab order" and you can re-order all your controls.

Hi my frien,

With the tab you can move between the controls of a form but once in a subform...

you can't exit from there with tab....

at least only with tab... none...

Press Ctrl + Tab to exit the respectf subform..

Remember this combination of keys:

Ctrl+Tab
Ctrl + Shift+ Tab...
