Does any know how to set the focus to a control in ASP.NET. I can't seem to find a way to do it. Am I missing something or just that dense? Thanks Jim

You need to write out some javascript to do it. I'm frankly amazed that they didn't add in a feature that let's you do this. Web forms do it automatically when you are using smart navigation, but frankly I don't want some of the overhead and complications of that just to set focus.

Anywhoooo...

RegisterStartupScript(String.Format("<script language=""JavaScript"">document.getElementById("" {0}"").focus();</script>", <web form control to focus on>.ClientID)

Work smarter, not harder.

I am very suprised too, that's why I thought I was missing something.

Thanks
