All text highlites in a field

[David]

In my Access 2000 DB, when I click in the center of text
to position the cursor, all the text to the right of
cursor highlite and any alteration I make overwrites all
of the highlited text. This is the most annoying feature
I have ever come accross, but I can't find a way of
turning it off. Please can someone tell me how to stop
this from happenning.

I don't get it to do this. There is an option under Tools|Options, but it is
for Tabbing or using the arrow keys to enter the field, not clicking with
the mouse. Is there any code in the OnClick or OnEnter event of the control
that may cause this? Try looking for SelStart, SelLength, and/or SelSelect.
