You will have to use Client javascript to do that

Page.RegisterStartupScript("setFocus", "<script>document.getElementById('" & TextBox1.ClientID & "').focus();</script>")

Take a look at RegisterStartupScript Method of the Page Object to understand what happens when you call this method.

Used this in C# too... it worked perfectly!

Page.RegisterStartupScript("setFocus", "<script>document.getElementById('" + Textbox1.ClientID + "').focus();</script>");
