MS Access VBA to set current selection/record to null on a continuous form

Question

I have a form with a subform that is a continuous form. I have a tab control that displays information related to the record selected in the continuous form; the tab control displays as soon as a record is selected/clicked. That all is grand.

However, after the user updates information in the tab control and clicks a button, I want to hide the tab control until a record is actually clicked on the continuous form.

What is currently happening is that the first record in the continuous subform is selected and I'd like for no record to be selected.

Is there a way to set the current record/selection of a continuous form to nothing or null? I've tried setting the bookmark on the continuous form to null in the button click event using Parent.SubApptList.Form.Bookmark = Null and that does not work for me.

Seems like it should be easy, but I can't figure it out.

Answer 1

After the button click event could you set focus to the parent form? Doing this would force the user to click on a record. Maybe I'm not fully understanding exactly what you're trying to do but if all you want is for nothing to have focus after a button event then that's the route I would take. That's assuming you don't having any on focus events for thr main form.
