Tab does not activate input masks

K

Ken Curtis

I have set inputmasks for various text boxes in a form. If I "click" into
the boxes the masks show up ... but the curser is in the wrong spot. Not
good. If I 'tab" through the boxes the input masks do NOT show up at all !
Have I missed some setting?
Thanks

They should show up after tabbing upon the first keystroke made in the
TextBox.

And to solve the problem of users clicking on the field anywhere but the
beggining

Private Sub YourTextBoxName_Click()
Me.YourTextBoxName.SelStart = 0
End Sub
