Did you test after the user exited the field? As I mentioned, upon exit, the value is changed.

Here's a thought to trap the actual value prior leaving the field, but making it available after exit. I haven't tried it, but I'd be interested if you do.

In the KEYPRESS, just assign the .TEXT value to a property you've created for that textbox. You'll also want to do a DODEFAULT() so that the event processes values you've passed. Something like this:

cText -- user defined property for textbox, assigned an initial value of "".

.KEYPRESS()
LPARAMETERS nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl

THIS.cText = THIS.TEXT
DODEFAULT (nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl)
