Set Focus to textbox on tab controlVS 2005
On a form I have a tabcontrol with 5 tabs. Each tab has three textboxes on it. When I click on each tab, I would like to have the focus set to the first textbox. On the tabenter event for each tab, I put a textbox1.focus but the textbox doesn't contain the cursor. How can I do this? Try putting it in the click event of the tabcontrol. Just verify the
index of the selected tab, then focus on the appropriate textbox. Tom Henry Jones wrote: Show quoteHide quote >VS 2005 > >On a form I have a tabcontrol with 5 tabs.

I
have already clicked on the tab label at the top and when I put the focus in the click event on the tab, your suggestion works, but I might as well have clicked in the textbox! I would like to have focus on the textbox when the tab appears. Any suggestions?
