focus in textbox after text asp.net c#

Question

I am trying to focus in textbox after text in asp.net c# but I am unable to do it

my c# code is given below, please tell me where i am wrong:-

 TextBox txtindex = (TextBox)RptTask.Items[Nextindex].FindControl("TxtDuration");
 txtindex.Focus();

What event are you doing this in? I would actually recommend applying this focus in JavaScript rather than in C#. Also, you might consider setting the defaultfocus attribute of the form itself to TxtDuration. — Joel Etherton

Take a look at the ASP.NET Page Life Cycle Overview. Make sure nothing is happening in any events after the event handling that might change the focus after your post back. — valverij

Apply Focus Method on Text in Page_PreRender

//pre-render code as given below, 
protected void Page_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   try
     {
       TextBox txtindex = (TextBox)RptTask.Items[Nextindex].FindControl("TxtDuration");
       txtindex.Focus();
     }
   catch(Exception ee)
    {
    }
}

Hope It will Help!
