Trouble is, when is either PreviousControl or ActiveControl the right one. Clicking on buttons, option buttons, tab control tabs, etc., mess up the logic. I generally have created a property for the form CurrentControl and set it in the enter event (or whatever's appropriate). Since I don't set it for buttons or tab controls, etc., it's more reliable than the built in methods.
