Len,

Your code almost did exactly what I needed. The one minor glitch is the fact that the third frame can be tabbed to such that its border gets focus (as indicated with a grey outline). A control within it is therefore not selected or receiving focus and if the user is not paying attention, they may wonder where their cursor disappeared to :)

Any thoughts on preventing that from happening? Thanks again for the help!

Mike.
