They do have ID's but there is no PROPERTY command setting focus there in
the form

Just out of curiosity do the buttons have a component id that might be
getting focus set to it?

Charlie

Excellent idea - I neglected to say I tried that, alone and in
combination with the other 3 in my message - focus still starts on the
buttons!

One possibility, would be to place a CompID on one of the DBEdit or
other fields in the scrolling region then use PROPERTY CompID SET_FOCUS
'True'.

I have created a scrolling region form with 6 buttons and a region:

Buttons located outside the region:
First (Push)
Next (Push)
Previous (Push)
Last (Push)
Exit (Bit)

Region has 6 DBEdit fields in it AND a bit button marked "Delete"

When I bring up Layout / Change Tab order, only the buttons appear, not
the region.

Each time the form comes up, only one of the 6 DBEdit controls in the
region will be enabled each time.  I want the user on entry to the form
to START with the cursor in the region, in the enabled form. Instead, it
comes up with focus on the first button in the Tab Order screen.

I have tried, one a time in the EEP on entry to the row of the form:

PROPERTY Region1 SET_FOCUS 'Enabled'
PROPERTY Region1 SHOWFOCUS 'True'
PROPERTY Region1 TABORDER '1'

None have any effect.

ANother note that may help:  Pressing Tab moves only among the buttons.
If I click on the DBEdit control in the region, then TAB moves only from
row to row, not to the buttons.

Is there to accomplish what I want? I'm using Build 78 beta copy.
