setfocus

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();

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

GotoDlgCtrl( GetDlgItem( IDC_EDIT ));

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

If it's a trick question it's a very tricky one -- you shouldn't use SetFocus in dialogs. See here[^] for details.
