Textbox focus

[toysrwill]

I am trying to create a program where the textbox will always have
focus regardless of buttons pressed or other events. However when I do
a simple textBox1.Focus() it highlights the data in the textbox. I do
not want the text highlighted,but I always want the textbox with the
focus.
Thanks in Advance

Hi toysrwill

After the textBox1.Focus() line, put

textBox1.SelectionStart = textBox1.TextLength;

Happy coding!

Have a look at the textbox's overloaded 'Select' method and call
'Me.TextBox1.Select(0, 0)'.
