Focus on a Command Button in VB6

A doted border in a command button indicates
it has focus when it is clicked, right?...My problem is that I dont want the command button to show it has focus.

So can anyone tell me how to prevent the dotted border appearing in the command button when it is clicked?

Thanks.

I don't know...make a seperate picture you can click on or something
...

why wouldn't you want that on a button?

create a picture that has no 3d properties.


then put that in the right spot. I don't know how else to do it.
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Picture1.SetFocus
End Sub

I'm developing a memory game where I don't want the user to have a visual reference to where they last clicked.

I was hoping there was a property or combination of properties that avoided using a redundant control to distract the focus from the command button.

Thanks anyway.

Would a picture box work for you?

As a replacement for the command button or to distract focus from the command button?

If you mean as a replacement, I prefer the characteristics that a command button has(If the user knows where to click, thats half the battle won).

If you mean as a distraction...the picture.setfocus in the command_click procedure definately does the job.

Thanks.

Sorry I don't know the direct approach, but I am glad that you have it working the way you want. :)

You can add in your ON CLICK event to move focus to another hidden object that will not show tha last location of the cursor or focus by:
[object].setfocus
