Hi all,

When I click on a button on form2. I set it to focus a text field on form1. It does set the focus on that text field. However, the text cursor is no longer blinking on and off like it should.

How do we make it blinking in the text field?

Please help.

Thanks.

Sure, my pleasure. We are here to help each other. :))

What I did was adding the command below after setting the focus on the text field:

form1.focus()

I think it is a Vb.Net bug. Form1 did have the focuse already; however it didn't work until I specifically set the focus on form1.

Hope this will help everyone who doesn't know.

cheers to all.

i've just tried doing all that and everything else i can think of to produce what you're saying but for me (vs.net 2003) whenever any textbox has focus there is a blinking cursor (just like there should be) so it's not a .net bug
