disable a control while it has the focus

[cuttsy]

I understand that I cannot change control.enabled to false while the control has focus.

Does this mean that if I were to make a form with only one control that can have focus then I cannot disable said control?

I'm used to plain old VB6 and am unfamiliar with this restriction

Just make another control and size it very small.

Check out my mouseoverpopups.zip sample in the OnMouseMove thread for a working example on how I do it with my tbHidden text box...

I was hoping that this wasn't the only solotion.


Thanks for your help.

Just to clarify; you can set a textbox's width to zero, which is same thing as invisible, but still can be set focus to.
