Hence my comment about missing something & I guess I am. Your first line says you have to use GotFocus if you want a SetFocus, your last lines asks how to do it without use of SetFocus. My suggestion was to use the When event & return .F., which will automatically send you to the next control in the tab order (Cetin confirms this in his reply to me).

Perhaps I am not completely understanding your problem.
