We have a program that has a main window, a listview window, a menu bar, a tool bar, 7 Tool tips, 7 labels and 7 EditText controls Data[1] thru Data[7]. We want to change focus to the next EditText control when we hit the Enter key or down arrow and change to the previous EditText control when we hit the up arrow key. This is working ok, so far. We set pos=1 to begin with and then add or subtract from it, being carefull not to go over 7 or under 1. The problem comes in if someone uses the mouse to change the focus to another control. We tried using getFocus() but instead of returning a nunmber from 1 to 7, it returns 7,5,4,19,34,33,32 These controls were created one after the other. Why don't it assign an id in assending sequential order?
