write following to your form load and tabControl selectedIndexChange Event. void setFocus(byte selectedIndex) { switch (selectedIndex) { case 0: //focus control that u want txt1.Focus(); break; case 1: //focus control that u want cmb1.Focus(); break; } } void TabControl1SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { setFocus((byte)tabControl1.SelectedIndex); } void Frm_Form7Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { //setFocus(0); If by default first tab is selected setFocus((byte)tabControl1.SelectedIndex); } set the control TabIndex to 0 and you can also set the TabControl TabStop to false.

Have you checked out the MSDN documentation for the Form, TextBox, and TabControl classes? Everything you need to answer your question is there. Dybs

Open the form in design view. Click on the View menu, you will find a Tab Order option. Use it to set tab order for all your controls. No code needed.
