SelStart problem

[ybg1]

Hi there,​

​

I'm trying to open the form when the cursor sits at the end of the text​

​

that previously was typed, after todays date was inserted on the next line.​

​

It does all that but at first you see only the date, and to be able to see the​

​

previous text you need to scroll with the top arrow otherwise it is invisible​

​

​

​

Private Sub Form_Current()​

​

Me.Remarks.SetFocus ​

​

Me.Remarks = Me.Remarks & vbNewLine & Date ​

​

(Me.Remarks.SelStart = Len(Me. Remarks ​

​

End Sub​

​

​

​

I've tried: Me.Remarks.SelStart = 0 and I can see the previous text but​

​

of course the cursor sits in the begining of the page​

​

​

​

what I can do to have it sits after the inserted date and still see the previous text​

​

​

​

​

​

thanks

Other than having a left parenthesis in the wrong position,the following;

Me.Remarks.SetFocus
Me.Remarks = Me.Remarks & vbNewLine & Date
Me.Remarks.SelStart = Len(Me.Remarks)

works fine for me what error are you getting?

Thank you for your help
I've solved the problem by using DoCmd.Maximize
