Cool Setting textbox focus in C#

I hope this is the correct place to post this thread.

Visual C# is the name, and getting the blinking cursor in a textbox is the game. How do I set the focus on the textbox after I've done some other stuff in my app.?

I've tried txtBarcode.Focus(); ...doesnt work
txtBarcode.Select() ...nothing
txtBarcode.bringToFront() ...nada
txtBarcode.Enable ...same thing

Anyone with experience with this? Thanks in advance for any help / suggestions...

I hope this is ASP.net; Write following function in your codebehind and for every control call this function


private void Set_Focus(string controlname)
{
string strScript;

strScript = "<script language=javascript> document.all('" + controlname + "').focus() </script>";
RegisterStartupScript("focus", strScript);
}
