Unable to set focus to combobox after adding new record

Marcia G Akins — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 16:20:32 GMT

Hi all.

Gere is my code:

private void boSchedule_dtl_AfterAddNew(EventArgs e)

{

boSchedule_dtl.schedhdr_id = schedhdr_id;

ActiveControl = cboteam1_id;

cboteam1_id.Select();

}

but when I step though it, the debugge tells me that the activeControl is toolstripcontainer1!

What is going on here? I am just trying to make data entry easier for my users.

TIA.

Marcia

You can set the form level property FocusControlOnAdd to the control you want. [/quote]

Thanks, Paul! I knew it had to be simple.
