Shachar,

In the LostFocus event how about calling a subroutine/function with the control
name? In the subroutine/function check the control's name property and then
process your LostFocus accordingly.

What you need to use is the form's ActiveControl.Name property. In the LostFocus
event of txtA check to see if Me.ActiveControl.Name = "txtB". If it does
then don't process your LostFocus code.

Try to use the validate event and set the next control cause validate to true.
Lost focus and got focus is outdated.
