>Bob, if your users are ALWAYS tabbing in the same loop, put a 'nodefault' in the last control's LostFocus() event, and add 'FirstControl.setfocus()'. Haven't tried it.....

Works pretty good and will probably suit my users fine. There are still a couple of anomalies though. The 1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4-1-2- ... etc. sequence works great skipping the page tab between TextBox4 and TextBox1, however we cannot Shift-TAB back to TextBox3 from TextBox4. A little lastKey() code might fix this though. The other problem is Shift-TAB on TextBox1 which still goes to the page tab, but again some lastKey() code might fix this too. I'm saying "might" instead of "will" because I just checked lastKey() help and it says "LASTKEY( ) is updated when you move between controls", and this updating might be too late to help.

Great approach Barbara. Thanks.
Bob


>>When I am TABing through the controls on a page of a PageFrame, eventually the focus goes back to the page tab at the top. I understand that this allows the user to move to other page tabs from there with the arrow keys. In my case, I have created other hot-keys to move from page to page, and I don't want the page tab to get focus.
