So you want to have the button on frmStudent have the focus as soon as you open the form correct?

If that is the case, then with the form in design view, View Code, View the event "Private Sub Form_Load". In this section of the code, type in the following:

Me.Command10.SetFocus

Change "Command10 to whatever you have named your button and then test the form.

This line sets the focus to the button as soon as the Form loads.

I hope this helps!
