tabbing down a list of records, filling only one column

[Jalz]

Hi Guys,

Im creating a school registration system. I have created a list of records, and the teachers will see them in as list view. I have been asked from a user entry point of view that they owuld like to register the kids using keystrokes as this is much more convenient. Using the tabs, I would like to therefore tab down from one record to the next, is this possible. I know you can tab down, if you were in the same record, but I am proposing to jump from one child to the next for lets say monday morning.

Cheers

If they really like their keystrokes you can teach them the "next record" command, CTRL together with the "Down Arrow" key. Takes them into the same field they were just in.

I prefer key commands whenever possible, and this works for me.

What you want to do with the tab key only works in portals.
