One thing that I noticed is that SetFocusToFirst() happens before the end of the form.init(), which then forces the form to activate before the end of the init - which had some side effects now and then. Check to see if that is the case, and just try to comment that call (if it's there in the original CB, that is).

Then it's possibly just a VFE thing. Someday someone will be idle enough to write a book on CodeBook and its children, how much of parallel evolution was there etc... if anyone would bother to read it :).
