I find it strange that when I set focus to a container object which has user controls on it, the focus goes to any of the controls on the container, but not the one that is set TabStop = 1.

So when I call THISFORM.cntMyContainer.SetFocus(), it sets the focus to some control, like the third or fourth in the tab order on that container. When I TAB into the container, it does move first to the first control etc, so there is a difference between setting the focus with TAB or by calling SetFocus().

It is quite annoying, because the behavior is nothing what the user would expect. I was wondering if somebody has a workaround for this, other than overwriting the SetFocus() of the container or create a custom method that does the focus thing, because that would be quite an overhead in the application.
