Hi Guys - thanks for your respones.

Bob - I am using an ActiveX control as I need the "PasswordChar"
property as what the user enters is a password required to initiate
some logic. When I try to add the KeyDown event to its code VB
complains and I think this is because the events list must be
different between ActiveX text boxes and Forms text boxes. How can I
get a list of ActiveX text box events? The Excel help facility only
seems to list events for Form text boxes.

Peter - As this is a "password" text box the user just hits enter and
does not select anything else so LostFocus wont help me on this one I
think.

So - to clarify my original question: How do I capture an "Enter" on
an ActiveX text box.

I am assuming that when you select through Excel:
View-Toolbars-Control Toolbox
the controls you see are ActiveX controls - I could be wrong!

Cheers
Chrisso
