How can I set focus back or remained on Textbox?

[Tetsuya Oguma]

Hi all,

I use the following Events associated with Textbox
1. BeforeDropOrPaste (for OLE drag and drop)
2. Keydown (for capturing key stroke)

by Taborder, the next control that gets focused is Commandbutton.

Simply put, I want focus to remain in the Textbox control when user presses
Enter key.

At the moment, I can clear the entry in the Textbox but no matter how I code
it focus shifts to the Commandbutton...

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tetsuya,

Change these Textbox properties

EnterKeyBehavior True
MultiLine True

Now hitting Enter will create a new line, not sure if that's what you want.

maybe as part of your coding simply add in

textbox1.set focus

so even if the focus wanders to the command button, it's instantly
redirected back to the textbox.
just an idea.
