I am using code similar to yours to set the focus back on the field. It
just seems like in the instance where I leave the first form with a table
item highlighted, the focus doesn;'t want to go back to the field. If a
table item wasn't highlighted when I leave the first form, I don't have a
problem setting the focus back on the field.
