Hi Agnes.
Thanks for your reply.

In all our VFP apps to date, users use the ENTER key to go from field to field after entering data e.g. Nsame, address, Prices etc.

It woiuld ne a huge re-education to get user to use the tab key instead of the enter key.

The Set confirm on may do the trick though...

Regards,
Gerard
