Keith I've been programming with VB for 17 years. Started with VB4 16bit Pro, VB5 Pro, VB6 Pro/Enterprise and now VB3 Pro. But I'm no expert, I'm still learning. 191

Most controls in VB6 have a KeyPress event where it will do other other operations when certain keys are pressed, experiment. Keith I've been programming with VB for 17 years.

Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer) ' Test for the enter key being pressed If KeyAscii = 13 Then ' cancel the keypress KeyAscii = 0 ' call the tab key SendKeys "{TAB}" End If End Sub Private Sub Form_Load() ' let the form capture keyboard events Me.KeyPreview = True End Sub 193
