If you have criteria that will let Access determine which records you want
updated, you could use an Update Query to do what you're wanting.

Ok, if I'm understanding correctly, you want the current entry to become the
default for the next record. To do this, in the AfterUpdate event of the
control, set the DefaultValue of the control to the current value of the
control. The syntax will vary slightly depending on whether the value is
text, numeric, or date.

Text:
Me.txtMyTextbox.DefaultValue = """" & Me.txtMyTextbox & """"

Numeric:
Me.txtMyTextbox.DefaultValue = Me.txtMyTextbox

Date/Time:
Me.txtMyTextbox.DefaultValue = "#" & Me.txtMyTextbox & "#"
