I'm adding context sensitive help. To do that, as data is being entered the user tabs from field to field or clicks on fields as needed. I'd, like to set a variable to the context of the field with the foucus when it gets the focus in case the user presses the F1 key. I can make code execute when I tab out of a field or when I click out of a field, but not on tabbing or clicking into a field. Some example code is below. The line tabbed in above the ellipsis and the 4th UDF below it (also tabbed in) are examples of something like what I want to do, but don't know how. I could be approaching it from the wrong direction too.

Edit 2007/03/16 I discovered ControlGetFocus ( "title" [, "text"] ), I think I can use it to set the Help Topic and to run any other code that would benefit from GotFocus. If there is a better way, I'd like to know it.
