The command button code doesn't fire. It fired only after I either deleted, that I typed or finished the typing the correct date. I didn't see any errors message displayed, after I click on the command button (e.g. perhaps, valid of TextBox was not fired ?). An additional info: form has an Error even coded.

You can't enter an invalid date. Fox has always worked like this. The Error event on the form shouldn't fire in this case because the error occured in the textbox. If you SET NOTIFY ON, you'll get a WAIT WINDOW that says "Invalid Date".
