Setting focus to the end of a text...

[Roselene]

Hi, again!

Is there anyway to set the focus to a text box, at the end of its text?
Eg.
Textbox: 95LT
I'd like the cursor to be after the T, instead of before the 9, in order to avoid having to move through the text too many times.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Roselene

try this:

Text1.SetFocus
Text1.SelStart = Len(Text1.Text)

Hi,
You can try this also

SendKeys "{End}"

Thanks

Karun,

This way works also. I guess we can use this command with other keys:
SendKeys "{End}"
SendKeys "{home}"
SendKeys "{enter}" and so on?

Thanks for helping,
Roselene
