I want to highlight any existing text, in a text box, when I click on
it, like when I Tab into the text box. I can't find anything in the
help.

Any help is appreciated

You can use selstart and sellength properties of a textbox in order to
select any existing text. In order to select the whole text of
textbox01, use,
me.textbox01.selstart=0
me.textbox01.sellength=len(nz(me.textbox01))

I tried to send this twice and couldn't figure out why it wasn't
showing up. The I checked and realized that it was going to your
email address. Don't know why.. anyway...

Thank you very much. That works great with my text box. I tried it
with a combo box but it didn't work. I tried adding SelText but it
still didn't work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
