I don't know anything about your application, but I would seriously consider refactoring the form layout to allow the rapid entry but provide extensions for detailed entry, or, provide an 'expert' form for the rapid entry. You mention tabbing through several tab pages, so simple auto-complete or Intellisense or whatever you will brand it won't be enough by itself. =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentorĀ® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
