Hello
We have a one field continuous form that we use to scan numbers into. The problem is after each barcode is scanned the user must hit tab , enter or use the mouse to navigate to the next record. Is there a way to have it move automatically ready to receive the next scan with the user stopping to click anything?

Thanks

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
maybe a touch of vba that monitors the cell and after change then forces the new record
