Sounds like you're caught between a rock and a hard place, Sandy. Is there any chance that you can trap the validation through the Error Handler BEFORE you get to the internal message?

>Unfortunately, my co-worker has already implanted all the verification inside the DBC and to undo would be a huge mess. There is an interactive process where the user actually creates the DBC on the fly through a number of forms and the validation is then thrown into a generate DBC process. An extremely complicated process, but it meets the users needs exactly and they are extremely satisfied. The remaining issue however is this validation box (ie message box) that the dbc generates.
