TextBox and the Tab key

[dndstef]

I wonder how can i crete a texteditor that can perform a
tab in my textbox without having my application switching
control to the next tabindex.

Is there a way to do that.

If there is i don't it and would really appreciate.

Well I've done a similar thing in the past by calling code below in, say a rich text box's GotFocus event:

Private Sub SetTabsEnabled(Optional ByVal NewSetting As Boolean = True)

     Dim X As Control

     On Error Resume Next
     For Each X In Me.Controls
          X.TabStop = NewSetting
     Next
     On Error GoTo 0

End Sub

Private Sub rtfBody_GotFocus()

     SetTabsEnabled False

End Sub

Private Sub rtfBody_LostFocus()

     SetTabsEnabled

End Sub

Hope it helps!
