Question : Access XP Popup Form_GotFocus/Form_Activat<wbr />e

Problem:
Access (2k2/XP) Form_GotFocus and Form_Activated are not firing when a form is a popup; but that's what I need. Anyone know a workaround/solution? While I'm here; is this a "bug" or a "design feature", and if so.. why!?

Background:
I've a main "continuous" form displaying multiple records. I've a toggle button to load a **popup** window displaying data relevant to the current record on the continuous form, this popup may be multiply instantiated. The toggle button refreshes On_Current, and the relevant popup form is "SetFocus"ed. This all works fine. Now I want to do the reverse...

If I, by mouse, SetFocus on one of the popup forms I want the cursor location on the main continuous form to move to the relevant record. However, Form_GotFocus/Form_Activated are not firing as the forms are popups. I really don't want to change the popup forms to be normal forms if possible, but can anyone suggest a way around the lack of Form_GotFocus/Form_Activated event?

Many thanks in anticipation

Justin
