Hello,

I have a user form that when it opens, I want the default text in it to be selected. I can't figure out how to do this. I've tried setting the relevant properties and used the Setfocus method, but I can't get it to work. Is this possible?

Any help would be appreciated!

Sam

Sam,

You need SelStart as well

With TextBox1
.Text = "This is a test"
.SelStart = 0
.SelLength = Len(.Text)
.SetFocus
End With

Text1.SelLength = Len(Text1)
