Scott:

This doesn't address why this occurred, but another way of handling the focus is to use a NODEFAULT in the Lostfocus of a control, based on a condition, and avoid the Valid method. It seems easier to follow in most cases..

Textbox.LostFocus()
If THIS.Value>Min
 Messagebox("Try Again.")
 NODEFAULT
Endif

>I am getting an error that tells me that I cannot call an object's SetFocus from a When, Valid, RangeHigh and RangeLow event. What I don't understand is, I am getting this error when the SetFocus command is not actually in the Valid event. The Valid of textbox1 fires and then goes to the GotFocus of textbox2 where my textbox1.SetFocus is called.
