set default focus to nothing?

B

bicyclops

In a pop-up form with several fields, some users are typing in data to the
field with the default focus, before they look to see what field they should
actually be typing in. The result is incorrectly changed data.

I would like to force the users to choose a field before they start typing.
But it seems the default focus is always going somewhere (1st item on tab
control). Apparently I can't set it to a label. The best I've been able to do
is create a dummy text box & set the default focus there. But there must be a
more graceful solution?

Thanks in advance.
