>>Can someone remind me why grids don't keep their focus when set programatically. I have one that appears over the top of some other controls and is setfocus with code but then immediately tabs to the next control in the tab order. Then the cursor blinking in the other control can be seen through the grid. ??

Actually, I want it to stay visible and keep the focus, and not show a blinking cursor underneath the grid.
