December 7, 20196 yr I have an address record with seven fields. To enter the data, my users like to tab through the fields in a set order. One of the fields is set to pop up list with a value list of world countries, the first of which is 'United Kingdom'. My problem is that if I click in the field with the mouse, the popup is triggered and the value list is displayed for selection with the mouse. However, if I tab through the list, when I tab into the field the popup is not triggered so the value list of countries is not displayed for selection. How can I set the layout so that tabbing into that field will show the popup list?

December 7, 20196 yr Author Thank you! Beautifully solved by changing from popup to dropdown. Nice one.
