How do I set a CONTROL to have the keyboard focus?

[Quin]

Oh, I see. Thanks much, that worked!
Side note, you just blew my mind, I didn't know there was a version of the Windows API documentation in CHM format! Oh my, where has this been hiding all my life?

Sorry if this is obvious, I'm still getting used to this documentation structure, and a search on the forum/in the CHM didn't help me. Is it possible for me to set a control as the default (e.g. the focus is placed there by default and you can type/tab from there) in my LOADFORM sub?
Thanks!

The Win32API is pretty useful, so most of that is not duplicated in BCX's lexicon.

To answer your question, just use SetFocus ( Your_Window_Control_Handle )
