I have a text box that recieves a user input date. It checks this date against another known date. If this input date is prior to known date I display a generic message form for a few seconds with a warning message and clear the invalid Text data. However, the text box loses focus even though I have NoDefault in the lostFocus event. If I don't display the message form the text box retains the focus, but I really need the message form to display the warning.
