Try this:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
MsgBox Me.ActiveControl.Name
End Sub

so ActiveControl returns a reference to the selected control (textbox).
However, you must change the TakeFocusOnClick property of the commandbutton
to False otherwise ActionControl will refer to the commandbutton itself.
