Well, working with shortcut key for button it worked for me in C# etc., but alternatively, you could try something like setting a global variable for the form pointing to the control that had focus before clicking on the button - as in the textBox's TextChanged, or Enter event or something.

Hi there. In what language / environment? Windows Forms .Net? Is there not perhaps a HasFocus property on those textbox controls? Then you could loop through them and check which is true.

What i mean is, that there should just be one bold button, and if user is on textbox1 and presses the shortcut key (ctrl+b for instance), text of textbox 1 should be bolded, but if user is focused on textbox2 and presses the same shortcut key, text of textbox2 should be changed this time, not textbox1. I know, conditional expressions will be use, but I’m unable to find out what should I check in this case? Please help me doing this.
