>BTW. I was using the LostFocus Method because my validation routine calls a custom form like messagebox (but with a Timeout). In the INIT of the custom messagebox, I issue a conditional setfocus command. This throughs an error because VFP doesn't allow SetFocus from When, Valid, RangeHigh or RangeLow event.

The reason is that e.g. Valid event is exactle the place which firing internally when you try to move a focus, i.e issuing Setfocus from Valid(When etc) you can invoke recurrent loop until your computer die, so VFP compiler readily stops you.
BTW, in a case of standard textbox you don't need in Dodefault().
