I had a similar problem and solved it like this:
In one of your procedures define a timer as follows
Define Class "TempTimer" As Timer
Interval = 1000
Procedure Timer()
Thisform.Release()
EndProc
EndDefine
Add a property lFirstActivate (default value .T.) to the form that is causing a
problem, then put the following code in the forms Activate method
Local loForm As Form
loForm = CreateObject("Form")
loForm.AddObject("oTimer", "TempTimer")
loForm.Left = -1000
loForm.Top = -1000
loForm.Show(1)
This.lFirstActivate = .F.

Subject: Focus not in correct place
Happy Friday !!
I have been trying to fix this problem for a while, but I am stumped.
I have a VFP9 form that has several containers on the form. Depending on the
menu item selected, the program will load other containers inside the main
containers on the form.
I have one container that on the first load only, the focus is lost when the
container loads. Everything looks fine with the container but when you hit the
TAB key the computer beeps like it can not tab. I also can not type in any of
the text boxes. The weird thing is I can click in any of the text boxes, but it
will not let me type. The dropdown controls do work and I can click on the down
arrow of the control and drop the options.
If I click on the same menu option the second time, everything is working fine
and the focus is correct and the text fields work as expected.
I am stumped how to figure out where the focus is on the first load.
Is there any way to find out where the focus is or why the container that was
just loaded does not have the focus on the first load.
If I run the debugger, the focus changes and when I click back on the
container, every thing is working like normal
I hate these kind of problems ...............
