>I have a textbox on a small form which users can enter job numbers from 1 to 9999. However, if they enter a zero, I want the form to release,(bringing them back to a previous form). I have tinkered with the keypress event but if a user enters 650, the '0' would trigger the keypress event and release the form. But I need to compare the whole textbox.value to what the last key typed was and it seems the keypress event is not where to do this. Any ideas?
LostFocus would be a better place. You add:
This.Tag=alltrim(this.value)
to Textbox.Gotfocus event, and
If This.Tag==Alltrim(this.value)
Return
Endif
If Val(This.Value)=0
Release Thisform
Return
Endif
to Textbox.Lostfocus event
