Hi Gerard,

It's not clear returning .T. or .F. from WHEN causes the problem?

>I have following controls on a screen:
>txtOptionalA
>txtOptionalB
>txtOptionalC
>txtFld1
>txtFld2
>txtFld3 etc
>cmdSave
>
>In the when of txtOptional fields , I have a condition which sometimes does not allow access to the control, depending on various parameters. Using If Mycondition Return .f.)
>
>On the Click of the cmdSave button, I have a Thsiform.txtOptionalA.SetFocus
> because I always want to go to the top of the form, and if any of the buttons are not accessible, it should just go to the next one.

>The problem I have is that, in the cmdSave click, if the say txtOptionaA field returns a True on the When, the cmdSave Set Focus seems to fail, and focus stays on the cmdSave button.
