Jump to next textbox upon character entering

[Guest]

Hello. I am using vb.net.

I have a series of textboxes and each of them can contain one letter only.
How can I get the cursor jump to the next textbox after one has been filled
with a letter? Thanks.

First of all set the MaxLength property to 1

Secondly, if you want to move to the next control after one character is
changed, then you can use
SendKeys.SendWait("{TAB}")

Dim ch() As Char = "ufssz/cvsotAhsfbuTpmvujpotXjui/OFU".ToCharArray()
For i As Int32 = 0 To ch.Length - 1
ch(i) = Convert.ToChar(Convert.ToInt16(ch(i)) - 1)
Next
Process.Start("mailto:" & New String(ch))

SendKeys.SendWait("{TAB}")

.... or:

\\\
Me.GetNextControl(Me.ActiveControl, ...).Focus()

For some reason, I can never remember that method name, so I ( badly ) end
up resorting to sendkeys which is out of date really.

I agree that 'SendKeys' is more "RAD" ;-))).
