I have a form that enables the user to search for a record by name, address,
city, state, etc. Once information is entered, the user clicks the "find
record" button. Is there a way to link the "find record" button to a
keyboard command.

For example...
Once the user enters information into the form, they can hit "ALT+F" to
begin the search

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

An easy way to do this is that you put the character "&" in front of the
Title name of the button. In the property sheet you find the Title property.
If the Title is Button chsnge this to &Button. Then you can use Alt + B to
press the button. If the Title is set to Butt&on you can use Alt + O.
