Set Cursor position 1

[Costefran]

Can anyone help with he following

I have a control on my form with format set to

@@@@@@-@@@@@@@@@@

and an input mask set to

>&&&&&&\-&&&&&&&&&&

My problem is when the user clicks on the control ("Named Others_Cost_Codes") the cursor stays wherever the user clicked but I would like the cursor to go to the start of the line. E.g the left - most position

I have tried

Me.Others_Cost_Codes.SelStart=0

but this doesn't seem to work

Many thanks

No Sweat MissingLinq,

I really didn't mean to dis your response in any way. It just didn't work for me. I really appreciate anybody who takes the time to respond to one of these posts. Even more so when, as you say, I "hijacked" another thread.

But, since you bring it up. The original post doesn't specify what kind of control Costefran was using. In his follow up post he says:

"I should have also poited [sic] out that it is a combobox"

Please don't take this negatively. I sincerely appreciate your input. I learned a lot from the thread and encourage you to continue responding to other threads.
