text box cursor position on entry

Hi I want the cursor to align left when someone clicks in textbox.

textbox has maxlength of 7 when user clicks in text box

the cursor is at position 2 so they cant enter all 7 digits of number

without clicking home and reentering number.

It sounds to me like the textbox has some default text in it already. Otherwise, it would be at the left when they click in. Post your code so we can take a look.
As, suggested please check the Text property. By default when you click inside the TextBox is should align to the left at position "0".

add this in page_load...

sub page_load(byval sender as object, byval e as system.eventargs) handles page.load

txt1.text=""

end sub

cheers

thanks for the replies, I have put txtbox.text="" in page load will see what happens.

please use me.load instead of page.load

cheers

Text value of Dropdown.

How do you get the selected text of a dropdown box? Selectedvalue will get
you the value and selectedindex will get you the position, but how do you
get the text (it isn't selectedText).
Thanks,
TomHi tshad,
Try this:
yourDropDownList.SelectecItem.Text

That was it.
I can never seem to remember that when I need it.
I never understood why you have a SelectedValue, but not a SelectedText.
