Jay,

Where did I say that Valid is affected by the code?
The problem is that you can set ON KEY LABEL ENTER KEYBOARD "{TAB}" CLEAR in the WHEN() of the checkbox but there's no event where you can put ON KEY LABEL ENTER to reset it. The Valid only fires when checkbox state changes. The WHEN() doesn't fire when focus is moved from checkbox to other controls using TAB key or mouse.

>You're saying that the Valid won't fire for the checkbox with this code the way it is? Not sure if I'm following what the practical issue is with the code. It seems to work, but I don't want to release it if there is a problem.

To reset ON KEY LABEL you'll have to put ON KEY LABEL ENTER in the WHEN() of every control on the form and DESTROY() of the form itself. Then checkbox WHEN() will include only
