Expert: Jeff Allen Date: 9/26/2006 Subject: Form cursor
Question Jeff,
I've created several forms with multiple text boxes in each for input. User currently has to click in first text box to activate cursor; after filling in that box, Enter will move cursor to next box. Is there some way to have the first text box be active, i.e., have the cursor positioned there, when the form opens?
Thanks for any info you may provide.
-Tom

Given that you have a form, and in that form you have a textbox named fname the following will set focus to that element
