I have a situation where the following code for a Form raises an error 
(#5: Invalid procedure call or argument) running under Win8, but on XP 
to Win7 it works fine...

Private Sub Form_Load()
  With Me
    .Caption = gsAPP_NAME ': .Icon = fAbout.Icon
    .btnRegisterApp(LicenseReg.Validate).Enabled = _
      (Me.txtLicenseKey <> "")
    On Error Resume Next: .txtLicenseKey.SetFocus
  End With
End Sub

..where changing as follows works without error...

Private Sub Form_Load()
  With Me
    .Caption = gsAPP_NAME ': .Icon = fAbout.Icon
    .btnRegisterApp(LicenseReg.Validate).Enabled = _
      (Me.txtLicenseKey <> "")
    On Error Resume Next: Me.txtLicenseKey.SetFocus
  End With
End Sub

Does anyone have any idea why \win8 throws an error?
