Specifies the selection behavior when entering a TextBox or ComboBox.
Syntax
object.EnterFieldBehavior [=EnterFieldBehavior]
The EnterFieldBehavior property syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
|---|---|
| object | Required. A valid object. |
| EnterFieldBehavior | Optional. The desired selection behavior. |
Settings
The settings for EnterFieldBehavior are:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Selects the entire contents of the edit region when entering the control (default). |
| 1 | Leaves the selection unchanged. Visually, this uses the selection that was in effect the last time the control was active. |
Remarks
The EnterFieldBehavior property controls the way text is selected when the user tabs to the control, not when the control receives focus as a result of the SetFocus method. Following SetFocus, the contents of the control are not selected and the insertion point appears after the last character in the control's edit region.
Note You can combine the effects of the EnterFieldBehavior property and DragBehavior to create a large number of text box styles.
