TextBox - SelectAll() Problem

[ProgrammingStudent]

I have one text box where I enter a number. I can either click the calculate button or use the accept property (enter) to perform the calculation and display the answer in a label.

I use the SelectAll() method to select the number in the text box when it has the focus.

When I use the calculate button is works correctly but when I just hit enter the text box has the focus but the number is not selected.

What could I be doing wrong?

Um the problem is probably in the event you entered the code.
Try using the (either/or both) click event and the got focus event

A couple of questions to help clarify the situation...
- What version of VB are you using?
- How are you intercepting the Enter?

You need to handle the key down event .
