Form controls in a Tabbed box

[kkarren]

I have a master form that has tabbed forms that are in a parent child relationship.  How can I have the relationship form immediately when I enter a value in the linked field.  I can make it work when I leave the record and get back into it.  However, I need to have it take effect immediately.

If you are asking how to have the subform on another tab get the focus then I would set a line of code for the After Update event of your field to set the focus on the subform field. <br><br>Sub sometextbox_AfterUpdate<br><br>subformname.setfocus<br><br>end sub

I tried your suggestion and was not successful.&nbsp;&nbsp;The data that I would like to accept the focus are locked fields would that make a difference?
