Default Form Field to total a column in a table?

I am a beginner with forms.

How do you control the movement from one field to the next? For instance
once I want to move them to the next field if they hit Enter key or Tab. Tab
works. My fileds are with in tables.

Also in Tables how do you create a formula that automatically updates?

If someone knows of a book or article that would help or just a quick answer
it would be appreciated!

To get the formula to update automatically, check the Calculate on exit box
for each of the formfields that contribute to the formula.
