MS Access cursor location in continuous form - ms-access

I have a contunuous form where editing is disabled. If you want to edit an entry you have to select the line in a table and click the button "Edit".
The problem is when the form loads it's allways the first line of the table that is selected by default and if you click the "Edit" button a from will open with values from the first line of the main form.
What I want is the cursor to be set to nowhere when the form opens and if you click the "edit" button a message box would appear saying that no record is selected. How can this be done?

Put a header on the form, and put a textbox in the header that has the form's name or something. In the Load event of the form, set the focus to the textbox in the header. Something like:
Me!txtMyTextBox.SetFocus
That should get the focus off your continuous form.

In Skyve how do I rename the OK button to something else e.g 'Save and Exit'

In Skyve how do I rename the OK button to something else e.g 'Save and Exit'.
I have a customer were what the "ok" button does is a bit unclear/confusing.
You can rename the button labels per action definition.
<ok displayName="Save and Exit" />
The OK button will only show when the user has access and the context is right, just like with
<defaults/>
To globally change the button label, open src/main/java/resources/i18n.properties (for all or any language variants contained within) and change the value assigned to
resources.implicitActionName.ok
key.

Updating text box from subform

I have the main form "MForm" with 2 subforms "subform1" and "subform2".
On subform1 i have 5 tabbed pages: Page1, Page2, Page3, Page4, Page5. Each tab will have a subfom included.
On Page1 i have a form "subform3".
My question is, how i can update a text box "txt_test" from subform3 from subform2?
I tried:
Forms!MForm!subform1.Form!subform2.Form!txt_test.Value
Forms!MForm!subform1!Tab.Pages("Page1").txt_test.Value
I am new to access and i can't find a way to access the data from other subforms.
Try this:
Forms!mform!subform2!txt_test.Value = Me.txt_test3.Value
txt_test3 is the textbox in subform3 (on Page 1 of subform1).
IF you put code into module of form subform3 then this code should change value of txt_test inside subform2:
Me.parent.subform2.form.controls("txt_test").Value = "some value"

use caption of pressed button from main form in query of other form

My problem is:
Main form has 9 command buttons and continuous subform. Click on some button open other form with text box for entering quantity and two command buttons. When click on the first button I want to use caption of pressed button from main form for query. How to get that button caption?
Thanks.
You have just clicked the button, you know the name of the control, so I do not quite see the problem, other than that it all sounds like quite a bad idea.
Private Sub cmdClickMe_Click()
Debug.Print Me.cmdClickMe.Caption
Debug.Print Screen.ActiveControl.Caption
End Sub
