Hi, I'm trying to set focus on the first control of my form and I'm
getting an error message.

The control name is "UniqueID".

I put the code "UniqueID.SetFocus" in the OnOpen event, but this did
not work, instead I am getting an error 2950 that says "Reserved
Error".

After reading the posts it seems that this might have something to do
with the fact that the UniqueID field is attached to an updating
listbox on another form? Is there anyway around this problem? I'd
just like to set the focus of the field to this UniqueID field when
the form opens.

Thanks!!

Click to expand...


Try using the Load event instead.

Are you sure you need to do this? The first control in the
Tab Order list gets the focus automatically when the form
opens.
 
Thanks marshall,

that's what I thought, but for some reason it's not working on this
form.

I guess they'll just have to use the mouse to manually do it.. I doubt
anyone will die. :-p

Thanks!
