>The first column in my grid is vendor number. If the user enters an existing vendor I would like to skip the next two columns and move immediatetly to the date field. I have tried several things but the cursor move the the next column forcing the user the press the enter key two extra times.
It depends some on how you want to move them...for just the enter key, you could put code like:
if nkeycode = 13
nodefault
this.parent.parent.columnX.setfocus
endif
in the textbox Keypress event
