I can use my mouse to give the errant control focus.
When I use Shift-Tab, focus goes to the control immediately preceeding
the errant control.

I have checked the tab order in View/Tabs, and the order is what I
would expect, with stop4 being correctly listed.

What a puzzle!!

Thanks for your response. I hope you have some good idea to move
forward with on this.

Thanks for your input

Can you use your mouse to give that control focus? If so, if you then press
Shift-Tab where does focus go? It should go to the control that is one step
prior in the TabOrder. Does it go to the control you expect?

Have you looked at the TabOrder dialog instead of relying on the TabStop
position to see if the order is what you think it is?
