like all the rest I am new to infopath. I have created a form with multiple
views. On my main view where navigation begins I have a dropdop that I want
to set to focus. I cant not find a stitch of code that will help with this.

I started building this in 2003, using JScript. I am in 2007 now, but do not
want to rewrite all my other code in a new language.

I am looking for the script reference for setting focus on a dropdown field
JScript - onload

According to the InfoPath Team, setting focus to a drop-down list box is not
supported (see http://blogs.msdn.com/infopath/archive/2004/04/07/109189.aspx)

Well this makes sense why I can not do this, but on my second view after the
view loads the first form field is a dropdown, and it is in focus. How can i
replicate this?
