Hi
I have a form which I start up with. The form's properties PopUp and Modal
are set to True. But the problem is that the form's Activate event doesn't
fire off. In the event I want to set focus to a control but nothing happens.
I even put a msgbox in the active event, but nothing happens.

What can I do, I want the start up form to look like this which looks almost
like a VB program.

Please help me

Thank's for your answer, but the form has a contious subform, where I want
the last selected record to get the focus after the users have opended
another form. Doesn't the Activate event run in a modal form.
