Thank you Ed for your reply .. and now to show my complete ignorance ...
I have tried every combination that I know of to reference the field
"Model" on my subform. with no success. The subform is called
"FCldetail_subform" and the field is called "Model"
I am a really a newbie having taught myself a little of Access97 (before
installing the 2000 version) and the best reference I have is VB for
Accsss97 step by step .. its not bad but really only an introduction. I
don't get to use Access nearly as much as I would like, thus my queries
here from time to time. I really appreciate all the help I have
received, and feel bad that I haven't figured this one out
This is the code for the "on exit" event of the last field in the Master
Form.
Private Sub Contact_fax_Exit(Cancel As Integer)
[Cldetail_subform.Model].Setfocus
[FCldetail_subform][Model].Setfocus
End Sub
I have tried other combinations with no luck. Any help would of course
be much appreciated.

Setting the Tab Stop property of the whole TabControl object will turn
the tab stop on/off for all pages (tabs). Don't know why yours is
working, but a work-around would be to use a
"[MyFirstControl].SetFocus" statement in the OnExit event of the last
control on your main form.

I have a master detail type of multi form and have all the field" tab
index and no" properties set correctly as far as I can see. Yet when I
get to the end of the Master form, I have to press the tab key four time
before it goes to the first field (Settings: Tab Stop = yes, Tab Index =
0) in the Detail form.
Any help would be much appreciated.
