Two ways I know of to handle this situation. 1. Make all controls not enabled when you load the form and then have a mechanism where they are enabled when you need them to be. 2. Add a textbox and make it's forecolor and backcolor transparent (effectively hiding it). On the form's load event set the focus to this textbox. John V.

This is driving me nuts. For various reasons, I need a form to open with the focus set to no control. The controls must all have a Tab Order, but none can have the focus when the form opens.
