      :confused: Purpose of SetCapture() API is different.Did you really mean SetCapture itself?

            Is this a trick question? The subject of your post should be a clue.

              To get more/better behavior than SetFocus() with edit controls, I would recommend CDialog::GotoDlgCtrl() (MFC) or WM_NEXTDLGCTL (Win32). (as stated by NS17) Mark

                You shouldn't use SetFocus in dialogs. See here[^] for details.

                    Assume the ID of your edit control is IDC_EDIT_NAMETAG, to set the focus do the following: CWnd* pEditCtrl = GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT_NAMETAG); pEditCtrl->SetFocus();
