Form level focus monitorI would like to write a routine that will monitor every focus change on the
form and report the name of the control that got focus. I know I could put code in the gotfocus event of every control and call a central routine, but is there a way to monitor gotfocus events from one central form level procedure? Thanks, -Steve "Steve" <Steve@nospam.com> wrote in message Not that I'm aware of.

Create a procedure with the same signature as your gotfocus event. In your form load event, loop through all controls on the form (that you want to log when they get the focus) and attach the got focus event to the procedure you created above. Have this procedure monitor/log your focus. HTH, Mythran
