Highlighting Text field for input

    Objective : The user requires to enter data into a text field without having to highlight it before typing over what was there before. This works if the user uses the up/down key to go to the next record, but when they use the mouse to go to a specific row I'm trying to find a way of highlighting that field (ie in reverse video). I've tried using the code: SendKeys "+^{RIGHT}" in the 'OnFocus' event but to no avail.
