I have a controls on a form bound to a binding source. The first control (textbox) is my auto-number field and is read only. I also have a function that clears all the controls (textboxes, combo's, and date pickers) on the form when a user deletes a record or clicks the "add new" button. After this occurs, the focus is put (not by me) on the auto-number field textbox. From that point on I am not able to get out of the textbox unless I stop the debugger and restart the program. Its like it is stuck in the textbox. I have tried taking the tabstop away and as long as I don't click in the textbox I am ok. The second I do it I am stuck in it again. I can't even close the form with the "X".
