Cursor in a textbox

Guest

When I click in a textbox to edit an existing value, I don't want the narrow
cursor to appear. Instead, I want the whole textbox selected (I don't know
if I'm saying that properly, but the entire field is 'blacked' like it is
when clicking at the right edge of the box) . This especially helps me when
the field has an input mask. Its easier to just re-enter a bunch of
corrected values than to be fiddling with the mouse trying to insert the
cursor in the right place. Any clues?

thank you

Victoria,

In the Database, go to "Tools", then choose "Options". Go to the "Keyboard"
tab (4th tab in). Here you can choose the options for behavior entering
field. Choose the option, Select Entire Field. Hope this helps.
