>Or any other app outside of the vfp app. If focus is on a textbox on a form, and the user clicks on outlook, how to make the lostfocus of the textbox fire. It only seems to fire when clicking on any other form inside the vfp app....
Hi Tracy, I haven't done much VFP for a while but from memory the Deactivate event of the Form should fire when you click on another form - you could put your textbox LostFocus code in a common Method and call it from the Deactivate event of the form ( got to be worth a shot ) .
