[Newb] KeyPress question

[Adriano]

hello,

I have TextBox1 and TextBox2 in my win. app, is it possibe to make my "Left
Arrow Key" act like "Shift Tab"(focus the previous control) only in the case
the cursor comes to the begining of the text inside the textbox??? (sort of
MsWord table behaviour)

thanks in advance,

Adriano

the second textbox and press the left key a couple of times

Private Sub TextBox2_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles TextBox2.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Left Then
If TextBox2.SelectionStart = 0 Then
TextBox1.Focus()
End If
End If
