SYMPTOMS
When the Value property of a CommandButton is set to False and the SetFocus method of the CommandButton is executed, the CommandButton Value property is set to True.



RESOLUTION
Set the Value property of the CommandButton to False after the SetFocus method is called, as follows: Private Sub Command2_Click If Command1.Value = False Then Command1.SetFocus     ' Set focus to Command1. Command1.Value = False ' Set the Value property back to False. MsgBox "Command1.Value = " & Command1.Value Else Command1.SetFocus  'Set focus to Command1. End If  End Sub



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
 Create a new Windows CE project in either Visual Basic or eMbedded Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default. Add two CommandButtons to Form1.  Add the following code to Form1: Private Sub Form_Load Command1.Value = False MsgBox "Command1.Value = " & Command1.Value End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click Command1.SetFocus MsgBox "Command1.Value = " & Command1.Value End Sub  Press the F5 key to run the project. Click Command2 and note that a message box appears that indicates that the Value property of Command1 has been set to True.</ol>
