Lost 'Lostfocus'
I have a program that works well if I tab out of the field, since I reformat
what was just keyed in, but doesn't work if the Enter key is hit.  I do have a
default key set so the enter does cause activity, but the lost focus doesn't
get executed.  I fixed it by sending VB a tab, but would like a better way.  Is
there one?

Actually I think the KeyUp(Down) event is a better way b/c the
KeyPress event is more for alphanumeric keys.

I ran into a problem once when I tried to mix the two types of KeySearch
events.


Also try the constant.bas file  It renames the enter key as
something like KEY_ENTER(orRETURN)

If I understand you correctly, what you want to happen is that when
the Enter key is pressed, your Textbox.LostFocus event should be
executed. Here is one way which comes  to mind:

SUB Textbox.Keypress (KeyAscii as Integer)
	IF KeyAscii = 32 THEN	' Enter key, I think...
		CALL Textbox.LostFocus
	END IF
END SUB

I don't know if this is necessarily better than what you have done;
take it or leave it.

13 is the ASCII code for th enter key, 32 is for space.
