Put Focus away ?

[Matt-D]

Hello vbers!

Ho do I put the Focus away from an element?
I'm doing a small picture viewer, which has only a PictureBox and two ScrollBars in it. The user can move the picture by keyboard and by using the ScrollBars.
Now the problem: When the picture is moved by the ScrollBars first and then by keyboard the Focus reminds on the bars and the picture moves wrong.

What can I do?

SOMETHING LIKE

Private Sub VScroll1_KeyUp(KeyCode As Integer, Shift As Integer)
Picture1.SetFocus
End Sub

Or you can add another control that does nothing(like a textbox) and set the focus to that.

You can't set the focus to a PictureBox!

WELL SET FOCUS TO SOMETHING ELSE THEN,

YOU SAID YOU WANTED TO SET FOCUS AWAY FROM THE SCROLL BAR OBJECT,

THE ONLY WAY TO DO THIS IS TO SET FOCUS TO SOMETHING ELSE. TRY YOUR FORM

Ok, I'll take the way using a textbox...

Thanks, anyway
