ACCESS Search: simple question

I have a database that has a simple search form where you enter the 'Search Text' and then mouse click the 'Search' button and the results are displayed.

Alternatively if the Enter key is pressed twice, first time to enter the text and tab to the 'Search' button, and the second time to action the 'Search' button, then the results are displayed.

Is there a simple way of just pressing the Enter key once to action the search?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Stephen

You can try setting the Search button's DEFAULT property to YES and see if that helps.

That's an idea.
