>The problem is this - if I make changes to text in a textbox and leave the cursor in that textbox then press F6 I loose my changes even though my save routine is getting called - I always seem to loose the changes made to the textbox last edited (the one that the cursor is in when I press F6) - but if I use my save button on the form the changes are saved ok - i have "set confirm on" so I think the problem is that the textbox is not losing focus and the valid not getting called etc. I am not sure how to get it working correctly. Any ideas appreciated!

Would it help if you force the textbox to lose the focus (e.g. by setting focus to the save button) ?

case nKeyCode == -5 && f6 save
     .cmdSave.Setfocus() && force textbox to lose focus
     .mSaveChanges()
     && add code here to restore focus to original control.
