Form activated or not?

I need to know if my form(main app) is activated or not at any given
time.

There are the Activated and Deactivated events and I can toggle a local
flag but that does not help if the form starts up deactivated because
the event does not fire.

Ed,

Hello all, I have a form with a text field (textBox1) on it. Apparently, textBox1.Focus() doesn't work when the form is initializing. I put this in the Constructor and also in the Load event for the form. textBox1 still doesn't get the focus when the form comes up. How do you do this? Thanks

Form.Owner and Form.Parent, what's the difference between them? Form.ShowDialog() and Form.Show(), when to use which? Form.Activated(), what does it mean when saying a Form is "activated"? Thanks!

I want to run something once my form in completely loaded and drawn but running at the end of form load doesn't do I guess cause of the large dataset fill and the form isn't fully loaded. Where can I stick some code so that I can run it after the form in fully drawn and loaded? I was told there is no real way to know when it is "completely" loaded?

Using VB 2005 Beta. I have a form containing a DataGirdView. The cell enter, cell validating, row enter, row validating events have a good bit of code that gets excuted for each of these events. I have noticed that when the form loads, each of these events run 3 times, before the form is ready for interaction with the user. I would like to set a boolean variable to true when the form first starts loading and change it's value when the...

I thought that the Load Event fired first and the Activated event fired next when a control is shown. For example Dim myForm as New Form1 myForm.Show I put a breakpoint in the load event and one in the activated event and the activated event fires first. I am trying to implement adding an event handler in the load event for the activated event then removing the handler

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
