I'm sorry I cannot reply in Spanish, but your English is better than my Spanish :-(

If you are using no buffering or if you are using row buffering, VFP will try to save a record before going to another record. In your valid routine, I think you are checking your table to see if the field value is in another record. To do this, VFP must move the record pointer.

Do your lookups for the valid routine in a second copy of the table (USE Mytable ALIAS Lookup). Also, try switching to table buffering.
