I have a form that instantiated on a button click on custom ribbon for a custom add-in. I'm noticing some behavior that is odd and after a lot of research I think it's Inventor application causing this behavior.
Controls
3 text boxes, tab index is 1, 2, 3 where tabstop = True for all three. All other label controls have a greater than 3 tab index.
Form
KeyPreview Property = True
What occurs is when a tab happens after the form loads the windows chime sounds like it is not allowed.
Has anyone had this situation where tab was not allowed on a windows form within a custom addin? If so what did you do?
Thanks!

Do you use show or showdialog?

Could you try showdialog, if that makes difference?

Sometimes the solution is closer than is thought.
