Left side of field

[Jenny]

How do configure a field to automatically start from the
left side?
For an example, if I have a field with existing
information, if I click in the middle of the field, and
start typing, the information will be added in the middle.

I want the mouse pointer should automatically be moved by
default to the left side.

I have the same problem with all Date Format fields. Even
the field is still blank, it will start typing in the
middle.

Thanks

Jenny

In the on-click event of the text box, insert code:

Me.TxtBoxName.SelStart = 0

Thanks mary anne
Is there way to set this up for all Text boxes at once?
Like on Form Open?
Thanks again

Tools - Options - Keyboard - "Behavior Entering Field"

Thanks Rick Brandt

Tools - Options - Keyboard - "Behavior Entering Field" "Go
To Start Of Field" Will move the Cursor at the beginning
of the field only when using the Tab button.
However, if you move the mouse in the middle of a Date
Format field, even the field is still blank; it will start
typing in the middle.

Thanks again
