To postpone the validation - and for other reasons - you should use buffering. (Another important reason is to let the user undo changes easily.) With buffering, the triggers won't be evaluated until changes are saved.

To enable buffering, put the following in Form.Init():

Cursorsetprop("Buffering", 5) && Third parameter can be omitted for currently selected table

When user does changes and then clicks on a "Save" button, try to confirm the changes with TableUpdate()

if not TableUpdate()
  local laError
  aerror(laError)
  MessageBox("Can't save changes; error number " + trans(laError(1) + chr(13) + chr(10);
    + "Message: " + laError(2))
endif

If the user clicks on a "Cancel" button, the corresponding command is:

TableRevert()

CursorSetProp("Buffering"), TableUpdate() and TableRevert() all have additional parameters for the alias, but I was assuming you work with only one alias.
