>>I have only tested this code for the conditions in it. There may be other factors that prevent a control from receiving focus, like visible property.

local loMinControl
loMinControl = .null.
for each loControl in ThisForm.Controls
   if isnull(loMinControl)
      if upper(loControl.BaseClass) <> "GRID" and pemstatus(loControl, 'SetFocus', 5) and loControl.Enabled
         loMinControl = loControl
      endif
      loop
   endif
   if upper(loControl.BaseClass) <> "GRID" and pemstatus(loControl, 'SetFocus', 5) and loControl.Enabled
      if loControl.TabIndex < loMinControl.TabIndex
         loMinControl = loControl
      endif
   endif
endfor
<b>thisForm.oMinControl = loMinControl</b>

>That works.

Or, you can add a property to your form. Run this code one time in form.init(), and when you need to setFocus you can issue thisForm.oMinControl.setFocus().
