You really should read the full documentation for controls, before posting a question. :) From MSDN: How to add Search Capabilities to a ListView[^]. Henry Minute Do not read medical books!

Did you read my previous post at all? http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?forumid=3421&select=969989&df=100#xx969989xx[^] Focus on ValidatingEvent and XmlValidatingReader.Read().

Are you using the string to store XML ? Christian I have several lifelong friends that are New Yorkers but I have always gravitated toward the weirdo's. - Richard Stringer

Moving focus between controls in a dialog is handled by the Windows dialog manager. If the window containing the controls is not a dialog you will have to handle changing focus yourself in your window procedure. (Assuming this is not an MFC app.) You would have to process WM_CHAR messages and do the appropriate SetFocus when you get TAB. You would also have to check for the Shift key if you had more than two controls.

Hi RChin, Thank you..
