[MS_AccessPros] Using Screen.ActiveControl.Name to determine focus

 

I am using a main form with several subforms.  The On Current events run when the main form record is changed.  However, I am trying to restrict some of the code unless the subform has focus.  The code that I was trying is  (code located in the subform)

   ' Set Total Amount Due if Billing Form has focus
   If Screen.ActiveControl.Name = "frmBillings" Then
      Tbox_TotalAmtDue.Value = tmpBalanceDue
   End If

However, I get the following message

Error 2474: The expression you entered requires the control to be in the active window.

Is there an approach that will accomplish such a process?  Not sure about global variable (not my favorite approach to programming).

Using Windows 10, 8.1 and 7 with access 2010.
