Thanks Dragan!

With this, there is no form. Just old fpw26 code and a GET stack.

The RETURN n, RETURN -1 idea may be the remedy. Good tip!

>Are you sure there is no form? I'd guess Fox wouldn't reinvent get fields straight on the screen if it could just simulate them with textboxes... so maybe there's a form behind the scenes, just like a browse is actually a grid. Besides, if you create a form, activate it, and then start issuing your GETs, they get created inside that form (with form's fonts - try that).

>If it's not called from a valid, your option is to run your gets inside a form. I tried that (and aha! my hunch was correct), and Fox created a pageframe with one page, then a textbox for each get field. You can traverse these textboxes, looking for a given controlsource, to get a reference to your desired textbox (object reference, not number) and setfocus to it.
