Here are some methods that you can use SelectNextControl GetNextControl I don't know if they will scroll the form to the control or not. Use the ScrollControlIntoView method to scroll to the desired control. Eslam Afifi

panel is only a container not any control to interact with. Every ctrl has its index property.So make panel index prty after textbox property. Store previous control Id to some global variable in textbox lost focus event.After you had complete ur work on clicking on panel,just use this Id and use focus() to assign focus on that control.

Can you tell me what can I do in my code? SerialPort serialPort=new SerialPort("COM1",9600,Parity.None,8,StopBits.One); serialPort.Open(); serialPort.Encoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(852); serialPort.Write(stringToPrint); serialPort.Close(); Thank, Jure

Problem solved, thanks to Hans Passant. protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData) { if (keyData == Keys.F10) return true; return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData); }

Hi, again! My problem is solved thanks to you. I move code from event TabControl.Selected to TabControl.SelectedIndexChanged as you have writen and now all work fine. Thank you very much!

No, No, No! What I mean is removing the interface from the Custom controls (labels,...) Hope he understood it.

Thank you Colin, it works.

Thanks, it's not too late. Thanks again, Jure

I was just providing a suggestion as to prevent needless overhead for reading the string. Grats on solving the problem.

You might want to have a look at StringFormat which helps you provide the alignment of the string while using DrawString() Every bit counts
