The trouble with using the VALID of a drop down list is that it is always valid by definition. So, in my experience, I stay away from the valid (for drop down lists). Since we aren't supposed to be able to setfocus from a valid anyway, would it help to use the lost focus instead?


>It's a drop-down list, and in this case the GotFocus doesn't do much of anything. It falls through a CASE statement and then does a DODEFAULT(). When I log the coverage, the line after the DODEFAULT() of the GotFocus is the first line of the Valid. My valid is setting focus to another control so what's happening is that when I click on the combo the cursor jumps to another field and never stays on the combo. It doesn't let me change the value of the combo.
