I am searching for a workaround to a very annoying VFP problem that causes
the mouse to become non-responsive after OLE drag-and-drop operations.  I've
stumbled across a very simple way to demonstrate this problem, which doesn't
even require an application to reproduce:

I have a inputbox on a form.  When the user starts to type in the inputbox
and accidentally hits the backspace in the leftmost area of the inputbox,
the inputbox control is lost and VFP jumps the focus to the prior control.
