Keep focus on textbox after pressing enter
How can I keep the focus in a textbox after pressing enter in a VBA form?
This code adds the text to a Listbox and I want to keep the focus on the textbox to get ready to receive another item.
When I click in the button Add, it adds the text to the Listbox and returns the focus to the textbox, howerver when I press enter it doesn't, even tough it uses the same code. Any suggestion?
This is my code for the textbox:

If KeyCode = 13 Then
CmdAddOtherAsset_Click
End If
End Sub
and this is the code for my button:
Private Sub CmdAddOtherAsset_Click()
If TxtOtherAsset.Text <> "" Then
ListAddedAssets.AddItem TxtOtherAsset.Text
TxtOtherAsset.Text = ""
End If
TxtOtherAsset.SetFocus
End Sub
I've tried several ways, but I'm not able to return the focus to the textbox. After pressing enter, the focus goes to the next in the TabIndex.
From the top of my head: try setting the KeyCode to 0. Also, use the KeyCodeConstants class (from the Core library) to determine what value the Enter key is.
Like this:
If KeyCode = KeyCodeConstants.vbKeyReturn Then
CmdAddOtherAsset_Click
KeyCode = 0
End If
Remove the line you're trying to set the focus on the other sub (TxtOtherAsset.SetFocus
).
Hope it works for you. I did not test it.
Are you using the Enter key as a trigger to catch changes to the text box? If that's the case, try the After Update event instead. Also, take a look at the On Exit event. When I looked, I noticed it has a Cancel parameter. If you still want to catch the Enter key in the Key Down event, you could possibly the On Exit event to prevent leaving the text box. Of course, that probably means you're permanently stuck and may need to set up a way to allow exiting.
