Usercontrol and GotFocus Event????

I've created a usercontrol to handle date input. It uses a maskedbox as a constituent control. When using the component in a project, the on_gotfocus() event fires as soon as the form is activated. "Built in" controls on the toolbox such as textboxes do not exhibit this behavior. How can I prevent On Gotfocus() from firing automatically???

Well if your control is the first control on the form...it's going to fire as soon as the form comes into view...Just make the TabIndex of the control something later than it is...If it's object 0 it's automatically going to get focus when the form is displayed.



Hope that helps.
