Access07 - Can you create Shortcut or Special Function keys in Acess?
Hello Experts.
I have an unbound keypad form that I want to the user to be able to bring up whenever they are in a numeric input field. To do that, I envision them hitting the F7 or some other non dedicated by access Function key. Is there a way to do this?
