Well the title says it all. I have my own control which inherit System.Windows.Forms.Control

The only functionality that this control requires is the capability of losing and gaining focus. I learned this requires the control style of selectable to be applied which is descriptive as exactly what I'm in need of, "If true, the control can receive focus.".

However after applying this style in my code, the control still refuses to have anything to do with gaining or losing focus.

Other styles I have applied to this particular control are as fallowed
UserPaint, AllPaintingInWmPaint, and SupportsTransparentBackColor. I'm not sure but perhaps one of these other styles interferes with the one that's not working properly.


Thanks and hope someone has some insight here for me!
