Can't set focus to controls on TabPagecontrol, 3 tab pages and a text box on each tab page. I expected the following to set focus to the text box on the selected tab page but it does not. Private Sub TabControl1_SelectedIndexChanged(...etc Select Case TabControl1.SelectedIndex Case 0 txtBox1.Focus() Case 1 txtBox2.Focus() Case 2 txtBox3.Focus() End Select End Sub CanFocus is false for the tab page and the text box while in the sub. TabControl1.SelectedTab = TabPage1 before txtBox1.Focus() doesn't help either. What am I missing? Thanks is this code in your page load even by any chance? because it wont work

Thanks. The tab control
SelectedIndexChanged event fires before the first form Load event so nothing can recieve focus.
