When you use this method to move to a specified page of a form, the focus is set to the first control on the page, as defined by the form’s tab order. To move to a particular control on the form, use the SetFocus method.
You can use the GoToPage method if you have created page breaks on a form to group related information. For example, you might have an Employees form with personal information on the first page, office information on the second page, and sales information on the third page. You can use the GoToPage method to move to the desired page.
You can use the right and down arguments for forms with pages larger than the Microsoft Access application window. Use the pagenumber argument to move to the desired page, and then use the right and down arguments to display the part of the page you want to see. Microsoft Access displays the part of the page which is offset from the upper-left corner of the window by the distance specified in the right and down arguments.
