Thanks DrJavaJoe. I tried it and it still did not work. The following is a snippet of my code:

Private Sub cboCompanySave_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = 13 Or KeyAscii = 9 Then
LoadCboMaterialSave
End If
End Sub

Maybe you can let me know what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,
RR

Worked fine for me. Did you put a break point on the event and see what the value is for keyAscii?

If no control on the form can get focus from the tab keypress then the KeyPress event will be fired. So in the got focus of the combo set all of the TabStop properties in all of the controls to false, and then to true again in the Lost Focus.

Thank you both. I finally got it to work. I had to set 'TabStop = False' for all of the other controls just like you said DrJavaJoe and that did the trick.
