What event should I be adding my code to change the editing state based on my parameter, so it maintains the same functionality as clicking on New or Edit button. Right now I have my code in the ParentFormLoading event of my primary business object. It does change the editing state correctly, but it will not honor the form properties 'FocusControlOnAdd and FocusControlOnEdit'. Thanks, Tim

All I would do is look at the FocusControlOnAdd or FocusControlOnEdit property and do this yourself. If me.FocusControlOnAdd IsNot Nothing Then me.FocusControlOnAdd.Focus() End If You may need to do this in the Shown event of the form in order to make this work properly with the Focus().
