There is no consistent way to repro the reply event not firing - it just happens r ...Show All

  I have an wierd problem with the tab key in .net forms: If i create a standard form and then instantiate it in the usual way from a .net application then everything works perfectly.  However, if i create a com interop wrapper that instantiates the form on behalf of a vb6 client, then the tab key refuses to work.
