Data Entry PopUp 1

I am running a cash register type program. After the order is totaled, I would like to have a button that brings up a pop up box to enter the amount tendered. AmountTendered is a field in this order table.
Any ideas on how to do this? I've tried having the button open a new popup form that just has the AmountTendered field in it which is fine, but when you hit enter, it just goes to the next record. I've tried to change the properties for On Enter for the field, but I get an error. I'm using Access 2000.
I could just have a button on this form that would close it, but the tendancy for these people when entering a total is to hit enter afterwards which would create a lot of blank records.
I'm new to Access and I don't know VBA.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Stacey
