Same here. Unless there is no source document - but then why do we need a human to enter the data? Devise a different acquisition system - a touchpad, a gamepad, a notep.. sorry, something to scan, a touchscreen... and for the remaining data entry things, where there is no paper document but the document is brought to existence by the act of entering the data... don't set any commandbutton.default=.t., or you won't be able to enter anything past the first textbox, unless you take care of your tab bar... um, bar tab... nonono, I did OK the first time, tab bar.
