    Keep textbox in same place when lost focus

    I have two textboxes side by side and the user is comparing the values. If you click inside one of them and scroll down then move to the other textbox to do the same so that they line up, as soon as that textbox loses focus it jumps to the top again. Is there any way to keep a textbox static and prevent it from resetting itself?

    Set the tab order of the boxes to jump in the order you want.
    set textbox prop,TAB STOP = false on a box that you don't want the cursor to move to.
    set the form property CYCLE RECORDS to current record,if you don't want the cursor to change to the next record.

    All I am concerned with is the data inside and the behavior of the textboxes.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
