      Try SendKeys {TAB},True.

      There are several events you can trap On Change, etc. Then check the Len()
      of what the control you have defined.

      Hope that helps..

          I may be completely misinterpreting your question, but if you are looking to
          programmaticall y move to the next field (simulating the tab key), look at
          ..SetFocus.
