In KeyPress event you can check SelStart property and if it equals to 0, you intercept the case and, I think, using setfocus() with nodefault will restore focus to the textbox.
You can also disable BACKSPACE at all using ON KEY LABEL in GotFocus event, but here you would lose this key for editing purposes.
