    Unhappy Using the return key with KeyPress Event

    Hi All,

    Can anyone tell me how I could capture the "Return Key" when using the KeyPress Event. I want the user to be able to type a string into a text box and once they press the return key for it to activate a given piece of code.

    Many thanks,

    Colin

    Well ...

    You could write code in the KeyPress event to trap the KeyAscii = vbKeyReturn. And do you have any command button set to Default? If so, set the .Default property to False.

    .

    And if that response was mine, please think about giving me a rep. I like to collect them!
