Set Keyboard focus on NumericTextBoxDouble in WPF

[Bsea]

I'm trying to give a NumericTextBoxDouble control keyboard focus programmatically.  I tried NumericTextBoxDouble.Focus() and Keyboard.Focus(NumericTextBoxDouble) and neither of them worked.  Any thoughts?

Using Focus does give keyboard focus to the numeric control itself (for example, if you use the up or down arrow keys, the value will change).

However, setting focus to the control does not shift focus to the input area within the control. To do that, use the MoveFocus method:

numeric.MoveFocus( new TraversalRequest( FocusNavigationDirection.Next ) );

Works like a charm! Thanks for the help!
