Hi Kevin,

>>Well the property for FocusOnCancelControl works in the sample application with it set to the btnNew control. There isn't any additional code or methods in the sample app for this to work. Since I wasn't actually retrieving any data in my test I suspect that had something to do with why the cancel method wasn't firing until I forced it. Frank, you may want to look through the sample Employee maintenance form and compare to what you are doing.

Well, no not exactly. I saw the FocusOnCancelControl was working in the sample app so I am sure I could figure out why it didn't work for me. This wasn't initially my question but I was trying to help. I didn't get either to work with my quick test but I wasn't actually retrieving any data. I just created a connection and a form and hooked up binding to a table and so clicking New button gave me the property tab but cancel never worked with either method. I suspect it was because I didn't really finish all that was needed. Since I saw there was a good example for Frank to look at I figured he could figure it out from there. I am sure I could if I needed.
