Subform GotFocus event not firing.

[Jay]

Main form with 3 subforms, one on each page of a 3-page Tab Control.

Each subform has a gotfocus event, but that event only fires for SubForm1
when the main form (and its 3 subforms) opens.

Switching to the other pages and selecting a field on a subform does not
fire its GotFocus event.

How do you ensure that a subform's GotFocus event fires?

Subform controls don't have a GotFocus event, and I don't think the
GotFocus event of a form ever fires unless there is no control on the
form capable of receiving the focus (though I could be wrong about
that). I suspect that what you want to be using is the Enter events of
the subform controls.
