Re: Setting focus to main form

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

You have to set the focus to a control.

try

me.parent.NameOfControl.SetFocus
me.visible = false

The above syntax should work.

You 1st line of code needs to be changed.

You 2nd line of code may work as written...

Forms("frm_menu")!frmBKBox.Visible = False

So, just set the focus to an actual control on the main form, and that
should do the trick...
