Which TextBox control has focus?

[DiverDan]

First, Id like to thank all these people for their time and patience in helping us newbies.

I have a form with many textboxes. Id like to know which form has focus so that Cut, Copy, Paste can work on it. And I cant understand how to find which textbox has focus.

Use

Me.ActiveControl

to return the currently active control
on a form.

Ok...I got the paste command;
If Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text) Then
Me.ActiveControl.Text = Me.ActiveControl.Text & Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text)
End If

But Im having a bit of a problem with the copy and cut commands...Please Help!

I think Textboxes have proper clipboard commands:

DirectCast(Me.ActiveControl, TextBox).Cut()

divil...it works great! I thought only RTF boxes were capabile of proper clipboard commands...guess not.

Thanks for your help!

Cut:
DirectCast(Me.ActiveControl, TextBox).Cut()

Copy:
DirectCast(Me.ActiveControl, TextBox).Copy()

Paste:
If Clipboard.GetDataObject.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text) Then
DirectCast(Me.ActiveControl, TextBox).Paste()

It doesnt get any simplier...Thanks again divil!!!
