Hi All - Happy late New Year
I have a working program that I want to add a textbox to in order to get some data from the user. The program does a lot of file processing on auto pilot - it is "called" in by a FoxPro program to use Excel to create a PDF form that is finally emailed. The users want to specify the body of email message so I said - "no problem"; multiline textbox! I added the textbox, set the tab index to 0; set the focus and started testing - processing never stops to allow the user to input. The control is enabled and I am doing a me.show because the processing status of the programming is displayed to the end user, etc. I have placed a msgbox in the textbox enter event - it pops; I have placed a message box in the textbox gotfocus event - it pops. I have placed a message box in the textbox leave event - it never pops. The gotfocus event message box pop of course locks the program up which to me implies it has focus but "can't use it. Obviously, I am missing something - any suggestions, insights would be greatly appreciated.
