Yeah, "generally" cancel = .t. button releases form. Poking a dummy key value in button in cancel button code is another way to skin the cat :) I prefer the idea doing it in first place and freeing of thinking to stick to a special button class or checking if you coded it there :)
PS: I really rarely use valid event (lostfocus more often).
