PRB: Query Window Does Not Always Scroll to Record
'Article ID: Q96998

Creation Date: 04-APR-1993

Revision Date: 19-SEP-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Access versions 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0

SYMPTOMS

When you click on a query's record selector field and press ENTER, the screen does not always scroll automatically to display that record.

RESOLUTION

In order to get the window to scroll to a record, the selector field must first be altered.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

If the record selector shows record 1, clicking on the record number and pressing ENTER sends the insertion point to that record but does not scroll the screen to display record 1.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Follow these steps in the sample database NWIND.MDB:


 * 1) Run the query named Customer List.
 * 2) Using the vertical scroll bar, scroll down the query. Note that the record selector does not change from record 1.
 * 3) Click the mouse just to the right of the record number 1 and press ENTER. The insertion point disappears, but the query window does not scroll to record 1.
 * 4) Repeat steps 1-3, but this time erase the record number and retype it. Press ENTER.

Note that this time the window scrolls to record 1. This is the normal behavior with any record number you enter.
 * }
