We all know that we cannot change focus from a Valid event, but is that entirely true? Well not really, in fact since DOS VFP we could control the cursor by returning a numerical value in the valid event. Just place the following in the button Valid event:

if not ValueReturned
  return 1
else
  return 0
endif

Using this technique you can precisely move the cursor based on relative tab order, for instance to go to a specific control you can

if some condition
  return newcontrol.tabindex - this.tabindex
else
  return 0  && Stay right here
endif
