Set focus on a form with a tab control with 10 pages

[crowegreg]

Within a form, I have a tab control that currently has 10 pages. I'd like to set the focus on a command button on the form whenever one of the pages is selected. I've tried putting the following code, "Me.cmdExit.SetFocus" on the on click event within the Tab Control and the on click event within one of the pages. It's had no effect.

Thanks in advance!!

Is it only one page that this applies to?

Yes, it's long been a mystery why Tab control and its pages even have Click event listed. Tab control Change event does work.

I can't figure out anything that is consistent between the pages. When selecting a page, the focus could be anywhere on that page. I was hoping to make it consistently be on the cmd button to close the form.

I have another question related to pages within a tab control. Using the page order option, if I move a page from bottom to the top, when I open the form, how do I get the new top page to be displayed? The previous top page is displayed.

I figured out the page order opton. I already had a line of code indicating which page to set the focus on . I think I may need to do something like that to set the focus on all of the pages.

Not sure what you mean by 'bottom to the top' - tabs are horizontal. What 'page order' option - did you mean PageIndex property?

Yes, same thing PageIndex property. I had a line of code that was setting the focus to a specific page. I had to change that code to the new PageIndex of 0. Thanks for your help!
