Back Space textbox using Command_button

[Wagsy]

Hello Again,
i have a virtual keypad 0-9, i can type in stuff

text1.text = text1.text & "2"

when i press a command button,

how do i use the back space chr$08 to remove the last number entered?

i.e. a delete button?

If it's definitely just the last digit, then simply remove the last character from the .Text property. For example...
[CODE=vb]text1.Text = Left(text1.Text , Len(text1.Text) - 1)[/CODE]If you need to remove the last digit before the current insertion point (cursor) then it will be a bit more complex.

thanks very much, i'll give it a whirl.

Yep...

[code=vb]
text1.Text = Mid(text1.Text, 1, text1.SelStart-1) + Mid(text1.Text, text1.SelStart + 1)
[/code]
