On the Form Controls tool bar there is an icon for More Options. That brings up another tool bar that has an icon for a Navigation bar. Add one of those to your form and you can move to the next or the previous record, add a record, etc.

Add a regular push button.
Set action = "New record"
When you go to the new record the previous one will be saved if it is modified and if it is valid.

This helps a lot. By accident, I found just hitting the *Enter Key* does the same thing.
