Public LastFocus as Control Then in every click event for objects… Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by Hollandtech Sorry Matt, I did not make myself clear. Each control that might receive keys from the keyboard must set the variable LastFocus to point to itself so that the keyboard routine knows where to redirect the focus to. For example: [Code=vb.net] Private Sub TextBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.Click… Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by matt.clark.228 i am still not understanding this. the way you have explained it, your object sender will still return a value of textbox1.click, instead of the name of the previously focused item so that the focused can then be returned back to it... Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by Hollandtech The click event for the Textbox simply saves the "sender" as a control variable. The sender is TextBox1 in this case. TextBox1.click is an event, not an object. Think of it as it happens. You want to enter something into TextBox1, so you click on it as you would for any application. With a touch screen you touch it, which is exactly … Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by Hollandtech Try this (assuming your keyboard code is correct): [CODE] Public LastFocus as Control Private Sub TextBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.Click LastFocus = sender End Sub Private Sub kbdA_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles kbdEscape.Click … Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by Hollandtech For multiple text boxes you might use a single event like this: [Code=vb.net] Private Sub TextBoxes_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.Click,TextBox2.Click,TextBox3.Click LastFocus = sender End Sub [/Code] Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by matt.clark.228 i still do not understand this. when i do this, sender is whatever i click, could someone please post their code so i can see what i am doing wrong. thanks, Matt Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by Hollandtech Yes Matt, that is exactly correct. You want LastFocus to be whatever you last clicked (besides the keyboard). Then when you click the keyboard and it gets the focus, the keyboard can return focus to the previous object before sending the system keys. Sorry, I don't know how to explain it more clearly. It works for me. Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by matt.clark.228 [QUOTE=Hollandtech;1158985]Yes Matt, that is exactly correct.

Re: Onscreen Keyboard Focus Problem Programming Software Development by Hollandtech I did find that the variable name LastFocus could cause some system confusion, so I am using LastSelected.
