How to stop tabbing to next record?

I've encountered this problem in several applications.

When the focus is on the last control on a form's tab list, one more tab brings the user to the next record (or a new record).

Is there a straightforward way of preventing this?

In Design View for the form, select the form itself and goto

Properties - Other

and change the

Cycle Property

from "All Records" to "Current Record."

Thank you again linq. I'd say that I owe you, but I can't imagine having the opportunity to return the favors.
