>(Cannot call SetFocus from within a When, Valid, RangeHigh or RangeLow event )

That's "by design".
In Valid() you can return a numeric value to move the focus

RETURN 6 && jump 6 controls ahead
&& or Return -1 && whatever you want

If you want to use otherObject.SetFocus() instead, you can put your code into currentControl.LostFocus() instead of Valid()
If you have some "RETURN 0" in your Valid() now, in LostFocus() that would become "NODFEAULT"
