I have a 21" wide form.
I have the tab order set perfectly, however when I tab, it tabs off screen, and I have to scroll back and forth.
I have tried setfocus and gotocontrol.
It sets the focus on the next control, but doesn't move the screen to the right or left to show the control.
 
I found my resolution. My problem was I was trying to have it autoscroll the main form, when I tabbed in a subform. According to MS KB 106306 this is by design, and can't be fixed. Of course this may be a challenge to all you tek-tips experts out there.
