Requirements for SetFocus

[EddieN1]

I'm trying to use SetFocus based on the value in another field and I'm getting a "... can't move the focus to the control..." error message. I know the target control must be enabled and visible, and it is, but what other properties must be set to set focus to it? Thanks, Eddie



Okay, now it's getting weirder... if I hit debug on the debug window, then F5, the debug window appears again. However, if I do this again, it works as I expected it to... cursor is on the target control... maybe, I should add these steps to the User Manual... Help, Eddie

Would have to evaluate code. If you want to provide db, follow instructions at bottom of my post.

Where, exactly, are you trying to execute this code? You cannot, for instance, use code in the BeforeUpdate event of one Control in order to Set Focus to another Control.
