Does any one else experience pressing TAB (or Alt+Tab) causing their application to throw a Object variable not set error message?

I cannot point the finger directly at the Actipro control due to a vauge stack trace message

but since I am not using any 'unsafe' native methods I thought I'd pose the question here.

Hi Tony,

If it was something due to our control, it probably would show a stack entry in one of our ActiproSoftware methods.
