>This *seemed* simple enough but I'm stumped. I have a form with 2 comboboxes (and a label for each) at the top, and a pageframe beneath it. When the user hits a AddNew button, this same form goes into data entry mode. So after the AddNew button sets up the form for data entry, I need to add the following functionality without changing existing AddNew functionality:

>It seems (no matter what I do) that the first disabled combo is under the impression of being the active control because when I run the form I see no cursor outline indicating an active control, and if I hit the TAB key the first disabled combo suddenly shows a value and the cursor moves to the caption of Page1. I've tried changing TabStops, TabIndex, and Zorder to no avail. Even tried KEYBOARD '(TAB)' to simulate hitting the tab key twice to get to the 1st control on Page1 and nothing seems to work. Any ideas how I can code something in my AddNew method that basically says to the form "go here and make this control active" ?
Hi Roxanne,
Try Addnew.click code modification :

dodefault()
thsiform.mypageframe1.activepage = 1
thisform.mydesiredcontrol.setfocus()
