Naturally, I'd like the form to automatically scroll up. Also, vice-versa... if the user shift-tabs the form needs to scroll down.

Unlike the grid, the VFP team didn't give us a way to programmatically scroll in a form. So your short answer is no, short of some extremely unwieldy code that uses MOUSE CLICK.
Go with Kenneth's suggestion and use pageframes. It's usually a better design anyway.
