Disable 'Down Arrow' tab stop

[ironfelix717]

Hi,

I have a textbox, when pressing 'DOWN' on the keypad, it jumps to the next control with the next tab stop - EVEN when tab stop property is disabled. I don't want this behavior. How can I turn this off?


Thank you

I set TabStop to no for all controls and down arrow just moves to next record.

Any control with TabStop set to Yes will get focus.

I'm not sure why you want to disable the feature, but if it's that important to you could disable the down arrow by resetting that key to nothing using code.

have you got the form cycle property set to All Records?

As per Colin's suggestion:

Private Sub Form_Load()

 Me.KeyPreview = True

End Sub

Private Sub Form_KeyDown(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
   
  If KeyCode = vbKeyDown Then KeyCode = 0

End Sub

Hi Linq
Thanks for doing that.
I usually do Key Preview = Yes on the form property sheet but both methods work equally well.
