[Another of those questions that I should already know the answer to.]

If I put Text_Box_A on a form and activate the form, the focus will go to that control.

If I put Text_Box_B on the same form and activate the form, the focus will STILL go to Text_Box_A.

Now what if I want the focus to go first to Text_Box_B. How can I change the order?

I suspect the order to receive focus is the same as the order I see in the drop down list at the top of the Properties Window in the Form Designer.

One way to solve my problem is to copy all the objects on the form to some safe place, delete them, and put them back in the desired order. A grand PITA, IMHO, when there are dozens.

There must be a better way.

TIA.
