    Hi,
    I'm using a program in which one of the forms has 10 "Edit" boxes. Everytime I load the form, the handle numbers for the boxes change. Also there seems to be no relation to the handle number and the location of the box on the form.
    However I did notice that the last few times I loaded the form, the box with the highest number was the one third down from top right. The lowest number was second up from bottom left.
    Was this a coincidence or will this always be the case each time the form is loaded?

    Thanks,
    Al.

    Handle are asssigned to the text boxes in your VB app in an order - The tab order !

    Just press the Tab button when your app is running. And you will see the focus moving to
    second up from bottom left, and atlast one third down from top right. or may be the otherway round.

    Check it out!
