Hi Chipp,

At first glance I don't think this will give you the object that will  
be gaining focus from within the focusOut message of the object losing  
focus. The issue is that when an object receives the focusOut message  
"the focusedObject" returns the card of the object. What I am  
interested in is a reference to the object that will receive the  
focusIn message next.

Thanks,
