Hello All,

In VB or Access I'd use the SetFocus method to start the user at a specific
control or move them to a specific control during validation. Is there a way
to do this in ASP.NET?

Thanks, Herb

I don't know ASP.NET but the ASP.NET people do:
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet
 
Don't pay too much attention to Armins answer.
He has no money for a television spot, so he uses this newsgroup to tell
everybody that he knows nothing from
VB.net webapplications and thinks that all what has something to do with an
asp.net server is for that newsgroup.

But to the dotnet.VB.language subject.
I cannot find it too.

I did read that and test that standaard is the focus on the url and after
that to the tabindexes from 1 to y.
I did found nothing to change this stupid behaviour.

I have a piece of JavaScript with what you can put the focus on the first
control that you want.
Maybe you know it already, but if not you have it.
\\\\
<script language="JavaScript">
document.all.item("Textbox1").focus()
</script>
////

(If you did not know this already, the best place to put this in the apx
page is right before the </html> tag)

But I cannot set or change the focus with VB.

If you found a VB.net solution, you never know maybe in the asp.net group,
but I think this is the best place for that, will you tell it than here.

There is also a public microsoft newsgroup webcontrols, maybe they know it,
but to control it like you described, you will need vb.net code.

I hope it helps you a little bit
