Textbox default values: how to get cursor to the end of string

[EVPLS]

Hi,

some of the fiels of the underlying table have default values whose purpose
is to assist in data entry (example: internal phone numbers, default value is
the "trunk" including international prefix, area code, phone number -- user
should only be required to enter the extension number). Entering the textbox
highlights the complete field and users may overwrite the "trunk" when typing
the extension number.

How can I get the cursor to go to the end so the default will be appended
rather than overwritten inadvertantly?

Thanks a lot in advance for any idea.

In the GotFocus event of the text box:

Me.MyTextBox.Selstart = Len(Me.MyTextBox)

Works perfectly, thanks a lot.
