I have no problem with the recno(), what I want to do is keep the same relative row from one column to another
when the order changes between them.

You were trying to keep the results as relative row # 1, I want to be able to press the down arrow (to relative
row 2) then right arrow (to column 2, changing order of table) and still be in relative row 2.
