Close, but no cigar for me!

>>>I have a form (more than one, I'm sure) where a textbox is used to enter a value, the system looks up the value in a table, and populates a grid with some information from the record that is located. If data was entered, I return false so that the user can continue to enter values. If no data was entered, I return true so that the user can exit the control. This is done via the Valid method. It works like a champ. Now I am developing another form where I am using that same technique and, although it works, I get a beep and an "Invalid input" wait window when I return false. Actually, I believe this latter behavior is the std. behavior. The odd thing is that I don't know why I'm not getting it on the first form. I'd like to get rid of that behavior and have it work like the first form. I don't have anything in my base class that would affect this. Does anyone know why I might be getting the different behaviors?
