OK, OK let's mix your with my code :o)))

if type( "_Screen.ActiveForm.ActiveControl.Name" ) == "C"
  wndActive = _Screen.ActiveForm.Name
  MOUSE CLICK AT 0,0 WINDOW (_wndActive)
  set message to "Setfocus() to " + _Screen.ActiveForm.ActiveControl.Name
else
  set message to "No activecontrol to set focus to"
endif
