[AccessD] Sel Start and Sel Length not working for me

 Charlotte:

I pasted in the SelectEntire module and called it with Call
SelectEntire(Me.fldFHxDetaiMotherResponse) but no cigar.

Public Sub SelectEntire(ctl As Control)
  On Error Resume Next
  ctl.SelStart = 0
  ctl.SelLength = Len(ctl.Text) + 1
  If Err <> 0 Then
    ctl.SelLength = Len(ctl.Value) + 1
  End If
End Sub

Dear List:

In the got focus event of a bound text box I want to have all the current
text selected.  The box can only have a 0 or 1.It is bound to a field of
data type number

The following code should (I think, but obviously not) select all the text
in the box but doesn't.  Can anyone see why?

 

    Me.fldFHxDetailMotherResponse.SelStart = 0
    Me.fldFHxDetailMotherResponse.SelLength =
len(Me.fldFHxDetailMotherResponse)

I also tried:

    Me.fldFHxDetailMotherResponse.SelStart = 0
    Me.fldFHxDetailMotherResponse.SelLength = 1


just to make things simple.  But no soap.

 
MTIA,
