We created a activatie with a tabhost on it and each tab has its own panel with objects.
On one tab/panel we have 4 edittext and we want that the focus is on the 2th edittext of that tab/panel when the tab/panel is opened.

in code i placed in the tabChanged the following code
B4X:
    If TabHost1.CurrentTab = 6 Then
        EDT_WatermeterStand.RequestFocus
    End If

When i debug it see that the focus goes tot he 2th edittext (EDT_WatermeterStand)
and that there is no code running after it but the focus goes somehow back to the first edittext.

It looks like there is a event behind the tabChanged that places the focus back to the first edittext.
But we didnt write code for that, who knows in which event the focus is placed on the 1th edittext?

Thanx Erel,
Your idea worked:)
Only i had to use
B4X:
Sub SetFocus()
EDT_WatermeterStand.RequestFocus
End Sub

If TabHost1.CurrentTab = 6 Then
CallSubDelayed(Me, "SetFocus")
End If
With your solution i get a signature mismatch but your solution is better.
For now this works and when i have more time i figure out why it didnt work.
