Sendkeys with FlatEdit control

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
I have a form, with the following piece of code on Form_keydown:

   Select Case KeyCode
        Case vbKeyUp
        SendKeys "{Home}+{tab}"
        Case vbKeyDown
          SendKeys "{Tab}"
    End Select

with Ms textbox, the event fires accordingly in that when user presses up/down, the cursor move to next/previous textbox.

Unfortunately, with Flatedit not working: up/down key strikes makes the cursor move left/right of the text in the textbox.

Is it my code, or the flatedit in the way it handles the sendkey?

please advise.
