Jim,

Why do you need to SetFocus() if you're already in the GotFocus()? You can use endless loop to stay in GotFocus() and exit when conditions are right.

>I have a text box control that calls a FORM when the txtbox getsfocus (from inside the GotFocus event) IF a certain var is .t. Depending on what the 2nd form returns I want to go forward to the next control or stay right where I am and start over. My problem is that when I do a thisform.txtbox.setfocus from within that txtbox's gotfocus event it does not re-enter the gotfocus at the top where I check the var for .t. See Below:

>        thisform.txtbox.gotfocus   <=== Does not return me to "if mfirstime"
