I can't figure this one out.
When I pres the spacebar one of my form opens.
Anyone know why?
I do have a macro that traps certain keys but not sure what to put in for the spacebar.
Subsequent search in access help and the internet found nothing.

I did find something out here.
The OnClick of a command button on my form is being firing when he spacebar.

Is there a way to prevent this??

James -

Pressing the spacebar when the focus is on a button causes the button to be
'clicked'. That is standard GUI interface design, as it is much faster to
keep your hands on the keyboard than to move between the mouse and keyboard.
Similarly, if you have a checkbox that is active, the spacebar will toggle it
on and off.

Ok. It just startled me a bit. I'm in the habit of
restoring my screen form the screen saver by pressing the space bar..
When I inadvertently hit it twice.

Thanks,
James
