Hello

1) During Run Time in my VB.Net form I want the cursor to be in first field as default, when I press the "New" button. How should I do that?

2) How should I make the cursor go to the next field automatically if I press the Tab button?

Can you help me out to solve above two issues?

Solution 1

1) Either call the Focus method for the control in the Load event (or the constructor), or in the designer, set the tab order of the first control to 0.

2) In the designer, you need to set the tab order of every control.
