Hi Steve, The poroblem here is that when you activate a button under Windows (or any other OS that allows you to 'tab' to a button), the focus is automatically taken away from the field. Type the following in the message box : set the traversalOn of btn <YourButtonName> to false This will prevent the button from stealing the focus. Hope this helped, Jan Schenkel. ===== "As we grow older, we grow both wiser and more foolish at the same time." (La Rochefoucauld) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
