What if your maxlength is 0?

>This solution will not necessarily work all the time, depending on your typing speed, and other factors. This code in gotfocus is better:
>This.selstart=0
>this.sellength=this.maxlength

>>>My users are consistently using their mouse to navigate around the textboxes of a form. Often they will click into the middle of the control and begin typing only to have the cursor jump to the next field before they are finished typing. I have tried setting the Selectonentry to .T. and the MaxLength to 0 but this doesn't seem to help.
