Tab in textbox

[WayneS]

Hey Guys,
I can't figure this out. I'm using a textbox (multiline). When I press the tab the focus changes to the next control. I know I can get the keypress but I have to insert it into the text. How do I know where I am in the text? Is there something that says you are on the 15 character?
Thanks in advance,
Wayne

I couldn't figure out how to stop the tab key jumping out of the current control, but you could use an alternative key to the tab key eg CTRL + T, and insert a CHR$(9) into your current location.

Although using a Rich Edit Textbox, I was able to trap the TAB key using a KeyDown event.

Thanks for your reply.
If richtext can capture the tab key then I will use it. Beats the other way I was going to do it.
