>As I have said, the setfocus won't solve the problem coz in the first place, the password window is not activated. It's displayed in the screen but it is not the current active window.

Is your password form the starting form of your application? Are you hiding the VFP Screen before showing the login form? If that is the case, try this:

Create a config.fpw file , edit it with notepad and add the followind line:

SCREEN = OFF

save it and include it in your project, that way the file does not need to pbe present in the application folder.

Now compile your project and try again.
