Form focus() VB.net

[massageadm]

When the applicartion starts it is not the primary focus and the user has to click on the form in order for it to be. I have tried to use Me.txtLastName.Focus() as the last line that invokes but that does not seem to work.

Note: While running the application in debug the forms focus is set correctly, it's only after a compile that this issue shows up (while running the exe).

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions you can give!

Figured it out. Use Me.txtLastName.Focus()

Sorry posted the line after the line I should have. It should be this:

Me.Activate()
