>How do I send the FOCUS back to a field from a VALID?
RETURN .F. or RETURN 0 or RETURN [tabordernextfield of interest]
It's easy to get trapped in WHEN/VALID now so I try to only got/set/lostfocus and use the lostfocus event for validation and repositioning. Usually any gotfocus() code is ok to prime the field for the user (i.e. reset to empty/null/default this.value stuff)
