Shortcut for new record in Access?

Is there a shortcut key in MS Access 2000 for adding a new record? I haven't found one, and when I want to add new record in form view, I have to click the >* -button or scroll to the end of the records. I use shortcut keys a lot, and I can do anything else in Access by using shortcuts except adding a new record. Can you make a macro for this? Any help is appreciated, I tried but couldn't figure out how to do that.

Do you mean Datasheet view in the Table, or are you actually adding a new field to a table while using a form?

Ctrl++ will add a new field. That option is shown under "Insert."

Jennifer, thank you so much! I have the Finnish version of Access 2000 and when I click the "Insert"-tab, there's no indication of that shortcut, just the >* -button that's in the bottom of the form too. The Ctrl+ + works, and it helps me a lot! :)
