    Tab Stop vs Return Stop

    Yes. Some users prefer to tabbing through a screen of textboxes, some users prefer entering through a screen of textboxes. I want the user to be able to do either. Just not sure what the method of coding is. Thanks

    Tab Stop vs Return Stop

    On most objects placed on a form, there is a property called tab stop. In my case I have textboxes I want to tab through, The tab stop property works fine, but I havent found anything that allows me to use return in the same way as tab stop. Can you have tab stop and return stop at the same time?

    Textbox download worth trying

    I bumped into this download - it's a textbox that can be formatted for various items. It does dates very well. It also works on formatting for accounting numbers. It also allows you to tab or return your way through the textbox. http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/cpflexmaskeditbox.asp

    Custom textbox control

    I understand what the code is supposed to do, but am not sure where this is placed. Where would this code get used to create the new textbox?

    So I guess this whole .net thing isn't just version 7 of VB...

    I would try adding a new item and select dataform. Follow the wizard and hook it up to a access data table. Its a good way to see working code without much work.

    Which product?: Visual Studio Net Standard vs Visual Studio Pro

    As a newby to vb.net (I used access and crystal reports alot) I have found that the first 60 days can be a pain. But after that it all starts making alot of sense. I use vb.net standard, and have the developer version of crystal. This board can be an excellent source of knowledge.
