I have some vb textboxes on a Frame which is on a Tab control. All this is on a Form in an MDI child using DockingPane.
To move user from one text box to another, I use textbox(x).SetFocus
This 95% works OK, but sometimes gives error.
I think this error is same as if textbox is not enabled or not visible.
I guess this is a timing error or similar. Most times the SetFocus is fine. But sometimes I guess the DockingPane is busy doing something and the SetFocus gives error. (without the DockingPane it always works OK.)
Any ideas to workaround this?

Possible workaround
The following sort of thing seems to work OK
Sub AttemptSetFocus(myControl)
On Error Goto ERR_SF
For X = 1 to 5
myControl.SetFocus
Exit Sub
ERR_SF:
DoEvents
Next
End Sub
(Note this is not real code. Just to give the idea).
