    you had 5 downloads before me, so when I see that, I figure why jump in when so many are way ahead of me. After your last post, I decided to look. I now figure maybe it is because you make it difficult to help you. Rather than lock down things for everybody, remove all the obstacles when you post a db.
    That being said, did you test this db for the problem? I ask because the problem doesn't occur. Maybe that's because there's no code at all on the textbox and it is unbound? Did you forget these or other settings/properties?

    Now I see that another textbox might be involved. Still doesn't happen.

    You should explain what the process and goal is; e.g. "get a phone number belonging to the name in the textbox" or "filter a list of phone numbers that match the textbox value as it changes". Something like that - because if it's that simple your approach is WAY too complicated.

    Don't know why you set this db connection to itself. If you execute the line in the immediate window below, the problem goes away. If you did this for security, this is also the crack.

    As I said, the approach seems far too complicated for what it does. Setting a connection to the same db is something I've never seen before - seems pointless as davegri alludes to. Anyway, can't recall for sure, but I think the cursor behaviour (going to the beginning of the textbox) is typical when the textbox isn't bound. So to keep things as they are (including lack of Option Explicit and improperly declared variables, etc.) try

    Call GetTelfone
    Me.Tsearch.SelStart = Len(Me.Tsearch)
