>I observe the same behaviour. The invalid date data becomes selected which is the only clue that there is a problem. AFAIC, nothing fires, either, including LostFocus and Valid. Nothing happens unless the date is blank or a valid date is entered.

Mark,

I think, Craig is right and this is the behavior, if SET NOTIFY is not set. I just checked the form, it's not explicitly set in its Load, therefore it probably inherits the default setting, which is OFF. That's why we don't see anything. It's confusing for the user, though I'm not sure, I want this setting.

Thanks for confirmation.

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.
