>if i click the buttons on a form, all is well, but if i use the Alt+letter keyboard shortcuts, the code in the button is processes correctly, but .setfocus has no effect and focus seems to go to the last object added to the form. anyone had this before?

Using a hot key to run a button's click method doesn't move the focus to that button, which I assume you've realized. What exactly do you mean by ".setfocus has no effect"? Where are you trying to call setfocus? Can you show us the code you have in the button's click method?
