Ah, good one! When I tab into it I get the field selected. Click, no go.
If I put the call into the click event, then walla!, data selected.
Unfortunately I have 14 of these little text boxes on the form so I'll have
to have both a click and an enter event calling the text selector for each
one.
Problem solved.
Thanks once again to all for your help.
Best,
Rocky

I bet if you TAB into it, it selects the current value. Allowing you to
overtype.
If you click on it, then it probably won't

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,
