Selecting a Control

[Cutch1]

I got a quick question.

Basicly after pressing a button i want to select a textbox so i can type in it, without clicking to mouse on the textbox.

Is it possible to select the textbox through a code like:

NOT REAL CODE:
Me.Textbox1.sel ect()
or
Me.tabindex = Textbox1.tabind ex

or is their some other code to do it.

Please help me out

Yes. The SetFocus method is what you're looking for.

I wouldn't be too concerned. As with most of this stuff, it seems obvious once you know the right terminology. But can be very obscure until then. If you had been thinking about "focus" you probably would have found it easily.
