I agree with Meysam Tolouee.
Besides, you should understand that the focus is a keyboard focus, rather a property of a control.
For a window (not "Form", Window), you can talk about activation. When you activate a window, the control which was to has the focus will get it again.

What you are doing/saying makes no sense. When I create a key down event for the window and set focus to a textbox the key down event fires when I type anything in the textbox.
