Hi kranthi4uonly,

Handle the TextBox.TextChanged event,usethe SendKeys.Sendto simulate pressingTAB key. Try something like the following:

Code Snippet

private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

TextBox tb = (TextBox)sender;

if (tb.Text.Length == tb.MaxLength)

{

SendKeys.Send("{TAB}");

}

}
