>>> tab@xxxxxxxxxxxx 10/20/05 5:29 AM I'm a newb with ScintillaNet and I'm having a problem concerning focus. Hi tab, I think we've all had that problem. The solution is to explicitly force the focus on activation: sc.Focus(); sc.GrabFocus(); The documentation says that GrabFocus() is for GTK only, but it seems necessary on Windows as well. Hope that helps, Steve d. -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright, terms and conditions and e-mail legal notice. Views expressed herein do not necessarily represent the views of the CSIR.
