I believe that is how it should work.
My header of one form only has one field which is used to enter the desired
referrence number for the record you want. That it is the field that has
the focus when the form is opened. When the user makes an entry and tabs
out of it or presses enter, the AfterUpdate event runs and locates the
record desired. I then set the focus to the first field in my detail
section.
I don't know of a way to move from header to detail with the keyboard (other
than using an underlined letter in the name of one of your detail fields).

I can't tab from the header to the detail section of my
subform. Does anyone know what I might have wrong in my
setup? Thanks.
