Hi,

i have a form in witch there's a textbox that receive a positive number and i want to put validation on it. if it's negative, don't leave the box. so what i do is in the lostfocus

if thisform.number.value < 0
messagebox(...)
thisform.number.setfocus
endif

the messagebox appears but the setfocus don't go back to the textbox.
