KeyPress [Enter]

Hey,

How can I make it so that when you hit enter when your typing in a text box that it unloads the form? thx

If I was using your program I would be surprised and probably annoyed if it did that.

Like:

Private Sub Text1_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
    If KeyCode = vbKeyReturn Then Unload Me
End Sub

Maybe he is unloading cause the user has done what they should

That certainly wouldn't be one of the standard ways of doing it.

Here is a potential use.

A (custom made) password dialog (Form). If after entering the correct password
the user hits Return, (being valid) the form could disapear (remain if password incorrect). Maybe

Just for an afterthought you can set a command button to be a default OK button. When you press enter anywhere on the form, it will in effect click the button. You can also use a Cancel property to do the same with the Esc key.
