How can I change the position that the cursor is at in VB 2008

Give an example of what you are looking for. The cursor is moved around with the mouse. The position of the cursor in a textbox, listbox, etc.?

It is hard to understand how a cemetery can raise its burial rates and blame it on the cost of living.

I meant how can I change where the cursors position is in a textbox from within the code.  I was wondering, because whenever you change the text box text like TextBoxName.Text = "somthing" the cursor is put back at the beginning if you do this with the text box text changed event.  I want to be able to put the cursor back at the end when this happens.

I'm sorry you wanted to place the cursor at the end of the new text. Try this:

If you want to put the cursor of a text box in the end, you just need one line:



If your textbox are not focus:



...code...

myTextBox.Focus()

SendKeys.Send("{End}")

...code...



If your textbox are focus:



...code...

SendKeys.Send("{End}")

...code...

Hi,



If you mean that change the focused textbox, it's very easy, you should only go to the view menu and select change tab order, or by selecting the control and go to its properties and change the value of TabIndex.

Or go to form_load event and tape this:





TextBox1.Focus()
