>Well the problem is that I have a button. If you happen to be in the field that is getting validated and you click the button, the valid event fires; but then the code in the click method of the button never runs. For some reason the valid event code is cancelling out the code in the button.

But I'm returning true from the valid event, not .f. or 0. I will move to the lostfocus but I'm curious as to why my click method is not running when I'm returning .t. from my valid event.

Thanks!
