frm is a pointer to the current form. (In your case it's probably frmP) I
just took the example I posted from some code I wrote a while back.
And no, it's not the same code. If you look, you're drawing the form AFTER
you set the focus. What you need to do is Draw the form BEFORE you set the
focus.
Basically, the concept is that you can't set the focus to something that
isn't drawn, capice?
Catch ya on the flipside.
