TextBox + Enter -> Pling but wants TAB

I am doing an input program that inputs to a TextBox array. I want enter to act as tab and I use SendKeys "{TAB}" for that but I can not get rid of then Pling that occures.

Any suggestions ?

Try setting the MultiLine property to True. This will get rid of the ping.

If I understood you correctly :rolleyes: you want the Enter key to act as a Tab (as in, adding a tab to the text).
First set the MultiLine to True, then instead of making it multiple lines, make it support tabs, like this:

Code:

---

Private Sub Text1_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
    If KeyAscii = vbKeyReturn Then
        KeyAscii = 0
        Text1.SelText = vbTab
    End If
End Sub

Hi Yon! I don't think AKA wanted to insert a tab when he pressed enter. But change focus to the next TextBox. He should continue to use SendKeys.

Thanks, I got the change focus working. I also learned about SelText that i will explore tomorrow.

Thanks, AKA
