Dynamic text windows usage

[schleier]

Recently I developed an application with flash 5. I use in the application a dynamic text window to input data. For that is necessary to go with the mouse cursor into this window and click the mouse button for typing the data. I would like to have the text window ready for typing data without the mouse usage.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Ricardo,
Take a look at this tutorial
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/In...69/index.shtml

It explains how to tab between different input fields in a flsh form.
Use this tut as a starting point, I've just tried on clip event (load) using get and set focus and couldn't get it to work maybe you should use a key press to initialise the form too.
Or perhaps the tut and my suggestion will start you on a mission to MAKE IT WORK.

Hope this Helps,

P.S.
Wouldn't life be easy if Keyboards had a "Make It So" button?
It could sit next to the "Any" key!!
