    Is It Possible to Reference Multiple Text Boxes With a Single Function

    Hypetia... Can't get your example to work. I placed two text boxes on a form and placed your code but I can type any non numeric character without getting the error message and the enter key doesn't work. ???

    Is It Possible to Reference Multiple Text Boxes With a Single Function

    Thanks for the detailed explanation George. I really appreciate it. I have printed the info and will read it until I get it. I have also looked up help for ActiveControl in VB6 and was surprised to find pertinent info. I hope your info and the help info will turn the light on. I consider myself...

    Is It Possible to Reference Multiple Text Boxes With a Single Function

    Thanks for responding so quickly. I understand the first part... set Forms keypreview to true but part two, "... in the Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii as Integer) check ActiveControl." Could you be a little more specific? Do you mean I should write a sub routine in the form named Form_Keypress(KeyAscii...

    Is It Possible to Reference Multiple Text Boxes With a Single Function

    I have to validate numeric entry and the enter key press in 8 text boxes. After a number is entered and/or the enter or tab key is pressed, focus is set to the next text box. I wrote a KeyPress sub routine and validation works fine. I'd like to call the KeyPress sub routine as a function instead...

    Carriage Return Won't Work in a Text Box

    I have a list box that is automatically populated when the form loads. When a user selects a name in the list box the name is displayed in a text box. The text box is set to multiline but no matter which carriage return code I use only one line is printed. Selection one is replaced by selection...

    Word Form Fields

    Protection is correct. When the doc is protected I cannot tab from field to field or to the drop down list. When I press the tab key a tab space is created and pushes the box to the right. If I place the cursor in the field or drop down list the box becomes highlighted but I can't enter text...

    Word Form Fields

    A template I created last year has gone nutty on me. The first 3 pages have text form fields and a couple of drop down boxes. They work fine. The next text form fields and a drop down list are on page 6. About a month ago the fields and drop down on page 6 quit working. I have them shaded and...

    Recent file list doesn't display in separate window

    Thanks for responding so quickly. That's the first thing I looked for. The box was checked but the window didn't open. Voodoo software?

    Recent file list doesn't display in separate window

    Until 2 days ago each time I opened Word a new doc opened on the left and a window on the right displayed recent files. I haven't changed anything but the recent file window doesn't display any more. I checked settings and word help without success. Any advice? Word 2002 (XP), SP3.

    I create a report that requires that use of the Forms and Drawing toolbars. I don't want clients to see those tool bars when they open the report. Before saving the report I uncheck those tool bars in Tools>Customize>Toolbars tab however each time I open a Word report, document or template the...

    Word doc locks up on page 12 of report

    Thanks for all of your help. I had to get the report finished so I opened a blank doc today. Couldn't copy and paste whole pages but I discovered I could copy and past one paragraph at a time and objects one at a time. I copied the first good 11 pages, saved the new copy, deleted the corrupted...

    Word doc locks up on page 12 of report

    Thanks for responding. The fix didn't work. I tried printing the rtf and doc versions but neither would print. I then tried to print pages 1 through 11 that seemed okay but they wouldn't print either. Looks like I'll have to start over. I will attempt to open a blank doc next to the corrupt doc...

    I have been using a master copy of an inherited multi page report for about a year. I enter text, insert photos, excel tables & charts & text boxes. Check box areas are marked as sections. Today I inserted a photo and descriptive text box on page 12 of the report. When I clicked the text box...

    Insert video file won't work

    A short video made on my digital cam was saved as an .Mov file. Followed the very simple directions for inserting a movie into a word document but it won't work. Converted the .Mov file to an .avi file. That won't work either. The only thing that works is audio if I convert the file to .wav...
