Tabbed text box opens with all selected
I have a form with tabbed text boxes, and when anyone selects the tab the box
is displayed with all the text selected. Is there a way to keep this for happening? Thanks. |

TES,
See my response to this question on the microsoft.public.access newsgroup. February 10, 2010 12:46 PM Please don't post the same question individually on more than one newsgroup. It causes duplication of effort, and confusion. What one responder suggests is not seen by other responders in the other groups you posted to... If you must "cross-post", include all the newsgroups in the TO: Like... microsoft.public.access ; microsoft.public.access.forms ; etc... as needed That way, if someone answers in one group, that reply can be seen in all the cross posted groups. -- hth Al Campagna Microsoft Access MVP 2007-2009 http://home.comcast.net/~cccsolutions/index.html "Find a job that you love... and you'll never work a day in your life."

I guess I am looking in the wrong place, because I can not find it in Access
2007 anywhere. Is it called something else? Thanks "DrGUI" wrote: Go to the menu bar. Select Tools-Options. Then select tab labeled Keyboard.

TES,
Click the Circle icon in the upper left corner of the screen. Click the Access Options button at the bottom of the dialog box. Select Advanced, and then selecet the Behavior Entering Field option you want. Be aware that you're setting the behavior for all objects... not just those controls where the cursor is needed in the first position. Nothing wrong... if that works for your form. -- hth Al Campagna Microsoft Access MVP 2007-2009 http://home.comcast.net/~cccsolutions/index.html "Find a job that you love... and you'll never work a day in your life."

Sorry for the double question, but I lost connection and did not know the
first question went through, and I was even in the wrong place looking for it. Thank, and everything is good again here.

TES,
Okay, glad you're all set now... The multiple posting vs. cross posting is not a serious issue... just a "heads up" on that.
