Hi:
I am facing the
exact same issue as detailed below. Just wondering if any of you resolved
it already.
Meantime, I am going
to explore the suggestion given by Bret and will post if I get
somewhere.
Thanks,
Ravi

=== from a post dt. 08/23/2005 ===It looks like you have the right object, but it has been heavily customized
-- as you know. You're probably going to have rewrite the TextField class
to support this control.
Fundamentally that means doing ie.text_field(:id,
/elm1/).getObject.ole_methods to see what methods are supported and then
using trial and error and MS doc to figure out which will help you do what
you want...
I'd start by removing the focus call.
