Textbox in overwrite mode

[Abhishek Bhatt]

I have a textbox field on my form. By default, it stays in insert mode.
1) User need to press INSERT button on the keyboard, to change it into overwite mode. Is this possible programatically ?
2) I need that by deafult, it stays in in the overwrite mode i.e. if someone type something it should overwrite the existing text. How to do this?

I think you are looking for

[CODE=vb]SendKeys "{Home}+{En d}"[/CODE]

In text box gotfocus event

SendKeys "{Insert}"
worked.
