I have the following code on a form command button.

The form opens OK however I can’t find the focus.

How do I set the focus to strSalutation?

frmMembers properties for Popup = Yes

DoCmd.OpenForm "frmMembers", , , , acFormAdd, acWindowNormal, Me.Name
Forms!frmMembers.Form.strSalutation.SetFocus

Thanks, John

Does this work?

Forms!frmMembers!strSalutation.SetFocus

Is there a reason why you can’t use the Tab Order of frmMembers to make strSalutation the first control in the tab order – you wouldn’t need any code.
