I am looking for a way to keep the Valid event on a TextBox from firing if I click on a navigation button (cmdCancel). There is code behind the Valid Event of the Textbox that requires data entry. However, if the user clicks cmdCancel I want the form to stop everything do all TableReverts without caring about whether or not there is text in the current TextBox that has the focus. I could not find anything written that describes how to keep some event from firing.
