You cant disable the control while it has focus Error!!!!

[GirishBreakTheRules]

Hey guys,

am quite new on the forum, hope u'll help me out with this little problem. i have 2 forms created from the wizard. these are applicant form and School Certificate form. the Applicant_ID is a foreign key in the school certificateform .Both of these forms are displayed in separate tabs on a main form!!. I also have command buttons created from the wizard as well on both forms. When i add an applicant, automatically the applicant_ID displays on the other form in a combobox so that i can select it.

But the problem is that when i click on the Add record button on the school certificate form to add a new record about a certificate information for an existing applicant, it tells me "You cant disable the control while it has the focus".

Can anyone suggest me a possible cause and a way to fix that.??


Kind Regards.

Try following the vba code in the on click or on double click event
of your Add button. Somewhere there must be a command disabling
a particular control that has the current focus.

Try quoting it out that particular line to bypass it and observe
if your program still does what you want it to do.

If you don't want to disable the code, then send the focus to some
other control in your form before disabling it.
