Cetin,

Thanks for your response.

This is a little embarassing, but I just discovered that my calculation function following the above code within the GetFocus event was taking away the SelectOnEntry effect. I placed my Calculation function before the above code and it works just fine for numeric fields. Oh well, maybe someone can learn by this.

The GotFocus Event for this date control looks like this:

*---------------------------------
=ThisForm.CalcTotIncomeUsed()

Textbox::GotFocus()
This.SelStart=0
This.SelLength=This.MaxLength
NODEFAULT
*---------------------------------

Thanks Cetin,

Cecil
