I would like to write a routine that will monitor every focus change on the
form and report the name of the control that got focus. I know I could put
code in the gotfocus event of every control and call a central routine, but
is there a way to monitor gotfocus events from one central form level
procedure?
Thanks,

Not that I'm aware of. What you can do, though, is something similar to
your gotfocus event handler. Create a procedure with the same signature as
your gotfocus event. In your form load event, loop through all controls on
the form (that you want to log when they get the focus) and attach the got
focus event to the procedure you created above. Have this procedure
monitor/log your focus.

Thanks Mythran,
Sounds like a good idea. Problem is that I'm not sure how to attach the got
focus event to the procedure.
Could I impose on you for some sample code or a hint at where to look in
MSDN?
Thanks again,
Steve

Standard Framework documentation goes into great detail
" A top-level form is a window that has no parent form, or whose parent form
is the desktop window. Top-level windows are typically used as the main form
in an application."
So why is it that standard windows events fail to work in textboxes with
..TopLevel = false forms?

I have a form that with a datagrid with textboxes and a submit button. When
the user is in a textbox and they hit enter to try to go to a different
line, instead they submit the form before they are done entering their data.
I know this is how it is supposed to work, but is there anyway to disable
the enter key from hitting the submit button?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

How can I prevent the hidden WebBrowser from stealing focus? (And better

Hello!
Would be grateful for help with this one - a Record level Validation problem
I run Access 2000 on XP
A form has two fields:
1) fldLevel – it’s an Option Group with 4 choices = 1, 2, 3 and 0.
2) fldStatus – is a limited value-list (Combo) with 3 choices = Unassigned, In-Progress, Complete.
Any record in the form cannot be both Level_0 and Status_Complete

answer.
I'm not sure how other's are using the new split form, but what I like about
it is I can design the header part of the form with buttons, graphics, etc.,
then use the lower half as a datasheet. I move the splitter bar to
completely hide the detail of the record, and only show the datasheet. This
is nice, because I don't have to have a main form for the...

I'm unclear as to how best to use what I'm terming the top-level CSS

at this from trying to understand how best to set font sizes but I

Some CSS guides seem to suggest that a * declaration is good practice
for any style sheet, primarily I suppose to set zero defaults for
