Let UserControl have focus inside a TabPage

I have a Windows Forms application with a TabControl with several TabPages where each TabPage contains my own class FooControl that extends UserControl. What I need is the FooControl class to receive KeyDown/Up events, but the problem is that it never receives focus automatically. The focus seems to remain on the TabControl somehow, and even if I explicitly set the focus with UserControl.Focus() it will not always work (well sometimes is does work, but the focus will go away again).

I'm wondering if I missed something or if it's simply not possible to let the FooControl class receive key events?

If you want set focus where you want be careful to set all your control TabIndex properties to 0 and TabStop to false and if all your control have these properties set so you can focus what you want. Hope It's help you.
