Hi Mark,
This is a PS to my previous comment.
I'm a user who generally uses the Tab key as a rule but sometimes, as I'm human, I revert back to my old ways of "flicking" through fields using the 'Enter' key to get to a particular field; old habits die hard.
I'm a keyboard user and refrain from using a mouse only unless it is absolutely necessary; using a mouse for me means wasting time, however I noticed that TAFE students (being one myself last year - for a short time) are instructed to use the mouse at all times and this is evident in the Supporting Text Book (MYOB19 - AccountRight Plus Version 19 - Authors Gourlay & Flanders).
The most annoying thing about using the 'Enter' key in AR2011/2012 is the lack of consistency.
For instance this example:
- With the 'Enter Key Works Just Like the Tab Key When Entering SOME Data’ preference being ticked
- Open invoice 00000025 in the Clearwater AccountRight Plus 2012 sample company file
- A user can "flick" through the 'Shipped', 'Backordered' & 'Item Number' fields using the 'Enter' key and the data in those fields remain static, just like pressing the 'Tab' key
- When a user attempts to 'flick' through the 'Description' field the value of the 'Description' disappears as earlier reported; it is no longer functioning like the 'Tab' key but like the 'Delete' key instead..
