When you say "do not tab out" do you mean that you are just pressing a Save button. If this is the case then in your Save code make sure you SetFocus either to the current control or to some other control so that the entry is fully accepted. This is what I have at the beginning of my save code
If Type("thisform.ActiveControl") = "O"
thisform.ActiveControl.SetFocus()
EndIf
