It depends on what kind of control that button is. In the properties, check
if 'tab stop" is checked or not. If not checked, then you don't land on it. I
almost always don't allow a tab stop because users can unintentionally run the
button code without wanting to. But in your case, make sure "tab stop" is
enabled so they can land on it, then pressing "space" (or maybe [enter]?) will
select it, forget which
In one of my search forms, I have a search field and I have an eep "on exit
from the field" that checks if they typed something in. In my case, if they
typed in an integer then I know they are searching for an account# and I
immediately do a search for a matching account# and bring it up if there's a
match.

I have a form with a variable edit field. I also have a search button.
Currently when the user types in the variable edit, they must grab the mouse
and click on the search button to perform the search.
I am trying to find a way so if the user types in the variable edit field and
hits enter, it will perform the search. I am drawing a blank today.
Anyone have ideas on how to do this?
TIA
