i have a windows form with a textbox inside a panel, and the following code doesn't work as expected:

private void WizardLoad(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
  this.txtUsername.Focus();
}

Thanks to someones post: 

i now know that the best way to do it is as follows:

this.ActiveControl = this.txtUsername;

It works!
