Forms timer

I am trying to have my text blink with the following:

Private Sub Form_Timer()
Me.VendorName.Visible = Not Me.VendorName.Visible
End Sub

I try hiding fields which works untill i get to one control (does not have
the name VendorName) and i receive a runtime error--cannot hide control which
has focus. Is there a way around this?

Set the focus to a control that doesn't blink or change
backcolor instead of visible.
