compile error "invalid procedure call or argument

Author	Message
John Davi #1 / 5	compile error "invalid procedure call or argument I try to set the focus in the text field, but it has the compile error "invalid procedure call or argument." Any ideas?? Sub Form_Load txtUserID.setFocus End Sub If I put this txtUserID.setFocus in different functions, it seems working fine.

Herfried K. Wagne #3 / 5	compile error "invalid procedure call or argument Hello, Quote: > I try to set the focus in the text field, but it has the > compile error "invalid procedure call or argument." Any ideas?? You must show the form before setting the focus to a control: \\\ Private Sub Form_Load() Call Me.Show Call Me.Text2.SetFocus End Sub /// Regards, Herfried K. Wagner

GumDro #5 / 5	compile error "invalid procedure call or argument The control isn't visible (in fact not completely instantiated) until the form is loaded, ie after the Form_load() has completed Quote: > I try to set the focus in the text field, but it has the > compile error "invalid procedure call or argument." Any ideas?? > Sub Form_Load > txtUserID.setFocus > End Sub > If I put this txtUserID.setFocus in different functions, it seems working > fine.
