Hi Terry,

Another thing that I did not bother mentioning in the post was that the E_MSGBOX() function was preceeded by the equal sign (=). When I removed the equal sign, the problem went away!

I was thinking that the ENTER key maybe just returns LF ( chr(10)?) whereas the 'regular' key returns CR LF, CHR13). BUT, I've just tested them and they both return CHR(13). So, sorry, I'm as stumped as you.

>>Hi Terry,
>>Thank you for the reply. I'm not sure what you mean. The problem I'm having is that the messagebox is 'hidden' at the back of the application in the Windows ZORDER. You have to press Alt to bring the messagebox to front.
