When you edit the valid event, you can either return .T. to allow control to loose focus or .F. to force it to retain focus.

The bug here is that when you return .F., VFP6 automatically displays an 'INVALID INPUT MESSAGE'...Is there a way to remove that message or at least change it?

In the days of DOS, it used to be done by adding ERROR 'New Message' in an @Get statement...

Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks,

Mark
