text entering right to left not left to right. (1 Viewer)

[suepowell]

Hi, I have a really annoying problem that I hope someone can help with.

I have a text box on a form bound to a table. It was working fine but now when I enter text the cursor stays at the left hand edge of the box, and the letters all get entered at this side so the words come out backwards.

I've no idea how this happened, but the only way i could fix it before was to delete the field and add it again.

Has anyone come accross this before, I suspect some random key combination in the testing plan has caused this, but what it might be or how to undo it I've no idea.

Help please, it's sending me round the bend!

There is a property of a control named left to right/right to left is this set correctly?

HI All,

We found the solution at last, it was nothing to do with language or any text box settings.
I had an event on the onchange evet of the box, including a me.refresh. This means that every time a character was put into the box the curser was reset to the start of the box.

Obvious when you realise, but a real time waster!

Thought the answer might help someone else.
