I have just checked. The DataSource has AllowFocus = False and
AnnounceFocus = False, while both the bars (one NavigationBar and the
UpdateBar) have ReceiveFocus = False.

Nope, this datasource is the only one on the form and the other
queries are not connected to any visual component, however they are
currently open, but in browse mode. Since this project is the same of
my previous messages about "Problems to go into edit mode" do you
think that the cause could be the SP.ExecSQL that I have assigned to
the EditSQL property of one of the queries, since that SP involves
also the other queries that are in browse mode?
