Hi Larry.

Off the top of my head, I would say that you could add a property to your form class called oLastControl. Put this code in the LostFocus() of your control classes to register them with the form as oLastControl:

*** Register with the form that this is was the last active control
IF PEMSTATUS( Thisform, 'oLastControl', 5 )
  Thisform.oLastControl = This
ENDIF	

Then, in your command button you can test for !IsNull( Thisform.oLastControl ) and Thisform.oLastControl.Name = to whatever you are looking for.

You'll have to test this yourself because I didn't, but I think that something similar should do the trick for you.
