>>Anyway, why you should prevent button from getting focus, if user right clicks on it?

>Hmmm :) Call me fanatic <g> ... I'm always trying to achieve Windows compliant behaviour for my VFP apps, so the user, if he will ever notice that at all <g>, gets a more professional impression. Try to right click on a button, which hasn't got focus, anywhere in Windows. In most cases a shortcut menu or a "What's this" help will come up. Press Escape and have a look where the focus is. The same can be noticed when doing that with dropdown-comboboxes, checkboxes and option buttons. Well, I could also have this listed as a hobby in my curriculum vitae ;-)

May be you just have to wait a year or two...

With the new XP behaviours the focus follow the mouse without any clicking at all :-)
