Test the Form

Whenever you change a Form, it is a good idea to go back to Form View and test it.

 

Tab through your Form. Does it advance to the next Field as you expected?

 

5. Try it: Test in Form View

The Customer Form is open in Design View.

Go to Form Design Tools ->Design->View.

Select a View: Form View

 

Try This, Too: Test the Tab Order

Use the keyboard to Tab to each Field.

 

What Do You See? Does Tab begin at the top with the Home Phone, or First Name?

 

What happens after you Tab through all of the Fields. Does it return (Cycle) to the first Field on this Customer or go to the next Customer?
