Hi. For a control to receive the focus, it needs to be a Textbox or Combobox, or Listbox or subform, etc. It can't be a Label, or other controls that can't receive the focus. In addition, the control to receive the focus must also be Visible and Enabled. So, if you set Visible=Yes, also make sure Enabled=Yes. Hope it helps...
all are visable YES and enabled YES already unfortunatly
