Hi Nadya,

I know the trick, but I have it on home computer.

>>Then you can try doing it in the InteractiveChange. Of course you should ignore the value until it is complete. Then you can apply any validation *before* the user tries to get out the field, thus triggering VFP valid.

>>Hope this helps,
