Labview 8: continuous cursor in text box

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

 

I have made a basic instant messenger program with a text box that sends a message via a com port. When I press enter a "Send" button is operated and the string is sent, I then clear the text box. However to type another message the user has to click the text box again to bring up a cursor to type the next message. I would like the cursor to stay in the text box so the user doesn't need to click on the text box to type something else. I would also like to do this at the beginning of the program as well.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,
