That is basically the way I have been doing it. I am told that valid fires before lostfocus,but there are times when valid does not fire, such as when the form is trapping keystokes and takes action in the form keystroke event. Does that mean that lostfocus also does not fire? I am really having trouble getting all the exceptions to the event look set in my mind.
A problem is a problem only as long as it has a possible solution. Lacking that, it becomes a FACT!
