Just wondering... what's the best way to do a backspace ?

I figure the KeyCode = 8 for backspace.

Put in a userform with Textbox1 and Label1

Put in code like this:

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
TextBox1.Value = ""
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger,
ByVal
Shift As Integer)
Label1.Caption = KeyCode
End Sub

now test the keys - with numlock on and off. Also look at other keys on
the keyboard.

Use a select case statement to sort them out.
