@prabhudevu this is a VSCode issue, could you please open an issue in vscode repo?: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode

a simple repro is to follow the instructions here and observe that the focus goes to the status bar first before reaching the document content.

Regarding https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-mssql/issues/17447, rather than saying it is an external issue, it is more like a duplicate of https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/166768, our product is an extension of VSCode, it lives inside vscode, as soon as it is fixed in VSCode, we get it automatically.

Could you please close the issue https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-mssql/issues/17447 as duplicate?

Thanks Alan
