I have a textbox within a frame on my form. A user wants to copy and paste data into this textbox, but they are unable to do so. They can copy but when they try a right click or CTRL + V nothing happens.
I've looked at the textbox properties and don't see anything that is preventing this. The data they are copying is Arial 10. The textbox is formatted as Arial Regular 10.
Is there something on the form or frame that is preventing the paste feature from not working?
Thanks for the help....
To be able to paste into a textbox in a frame, you have to first be in Edit mode:
Right click on the textbox
Hover over Textbox Object
In the submenu, select Edit
Now you can change the text inside the box, including pasting text from other sources.
UPDATE:
When the textbox has focus, you can copy a cell's value into it, but not the reference to the cell itself. Click on the cell whose value you want to copy, then copy the text from the formula bar at the top of the screen and paste that into your textbox.

I am making a simple GUI that reads some parameters in EditBox and do something.
I have a lot of EditBoxs and it is convenient to move by Tab Button between boxes.
I want the text in the next box to be initially selected by Tab Button so that I don't need to do Ctrl+A and remove the text before typing new strings.
I couldn't find any information from web, and searched in the Property Inspector of Editbox but no luck.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks in advance.
I don't want the light grey background for my text.I tried to copy the text from internet and paste it in Ms word the same background is still present. So please help me out.
Paste it as plain text, rather than just hitting CTRL-V. You're maintaining the HTML style the way you're are doing it.
That is, right click, and choose the icon for "plain text only". That will paste plain text and maintain your current style.
I have an odd issue with a form I have in MS Access. For some reason, when I hit the "enter" key within a text box, the cursor moves to a different text box. What i am looking to happen is for the cursor to simply move to another line within the same text box.
Anyone have any ideas how to correct this?
You can use Ctrl+Enter to enter a new line into any text box.
For a specific text box, you can make the Enter insert a new line instead of moving to another control on the form by changing the text box's Enter Key Behavior property.
That's what I think you're actually looking for, but you would need to set that property for every text box where you want it to happen ... which may be fine for your needs. I mentioned Ctrl+Enter first only because that method works for any text box without changing the default property setting.
Under file, options, client settings, very first one option move after enter and change from next field to next record.

The answer to your question is "No, i do not have this problem".
You did not ask for a solution to your problem.
I'd like to have a disabled TextBox that the users cannot edit, but still copy from. I've tried both setReadOnly(true) and setEnabled(false), separately. Firefox seems to work as desired; the textbox is disabled but users can still copy the value to the clipboard. IE the disabled textbox has a greyed-out background and you can't copy to the clipboard.
Try using HtmlPanel, HTML widget or something else for just wrapping the text since you are marking it as read only, and just give a style to it in order to it looks like a TextBox.
