    You can use the GetForegroundWindow API.


    '\\ Declaration
    Declare Function GetForegroundWindow Lib "user32" Alias "GetForegroundWindow" () as Long




    use:

    '\\ in app main form....
    If GetForegroundWindow() = me.hWnd then
    MsgBox "I have the focus!!"
    End If




    HTH,
    D.
