Keep from loosing focus on a control

[JakRuzL]

Could someone please tell me if it is possible to force a control from loosing focus

I have a MS Flex Grid control inside of a user control. I have tried calling setfocus within the Iostfocus which does not work. I want to keep the user on the control based on certain row information. It is actually editable by the use of a textbox which is also on the user control

That is not a wise way of doing things...why would you want to keep the user from going anywhere else? If you want him to do something before continuing somewhere else, just reset the focus to the Grid from whatever event is triggered by the user going elsewhere. I know I would be discouraged if I couldn't mouse off something...what if I wanted to check a help file, or some other menu item???? Be KIND to your users, 'gently' force them to do what you want them to.

The Validate event comes to mind, when used on a text box this will prevent control from moving on until the validation succeeds
