Hi!
Return a zero from the Valid event of the control, so this will indicate that Valid is failed (Focus do not leave control) and message will not appear (you will show it by your own way). In addition, check there if Cancel or Exit button pressed on your form to return 1 to allow user to exit changes anyway.
HTH.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
