  ---
  --- 
  private
    { Private declarations }
    wcActive, wcPrevious : TWinControl;
  public
    { Public declarations }
    procedure ActiveControlChanged(Sender: TObject) ;
  end;

var
  Form1: TForm1;

implementation

{$R *.dfm}

procedure TForm1.ActiveControlChanged(Sender: TObject);
begin
  wcPrevious := wcActive;
  wcActive := Form1.ActiveControl;
end;

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Screen.OnActiveControlChange := ActiveControlChanged;
end;

procedure TForm1.FormDestroy(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Screen.OnActiveControlChange := nil;
end;

Use wcControl.Name to get the name of previous control

You could build yourself a 'history' of active controls using this event, and to find the previous you would consult your history list.
