>I have a Combobox and it receives the Focus when the parent page s activated. If I immediately click on a cancel button on the page the Valid for the Combobox does not run. I thought that when an object lost the focus, the Valid method executed. Wrong? Thanks!

This is no direct answer to your question, but if it is for data validaation, you can greatly simplify validation by doing all validation in a central method, called when the user saves a record.
For instance, one problem if you validate the input for each field is that if the user wants to press "Undo", he first has to provide a valid entry in the current field! Quite illogical for the end-user.
Valid() will also not fire if you press a button (e.g., "Save") which is
outside the form - one more reason to do validation only when you save data.
