    Someone wanted to do this a while ago. Putting fox's code in the change function would reverse the string so you should use the string reversal function as well.

    From reading other's posts, I have gathered that (because this exact Q was asked a while ago) doing this will reset the cursor to the front of the textbox, so that it appears to be reversing...

    And Fox and Zaei...

    DONT DO THAT
    Please

    Yes, it does stick the cursor at the fron of the box, but thats not even close to reversing =). Besides, ALL textbox assignments do that.

    Just set the SelStart property to the len() if the text to put it on the end again...

    Or you could do something like:
    Code:
    Dim x As String
Dim i As Long
Me.Show
x = LCase(InputBox(""))
For i = 1 To Len(x)
    SendKeys Mid(x, i, 1)
Next i
    ...but thats a bit dumb, no? =).

    Look Zaei, it's not for a TEXT BOX, but for an INPUT BOX
    Code:
    Temp = Me.GetIQ()
'Error 9: Overflow
'DON'T PANIC! :eek:
