Using VFP 6/7/8 (I haven't checked with 9 yet) I am having a problem with values returned from a combo.valid() event. If a textbox.valid() returns .F., focus stays with the textbox and the original value is automatically restored. With combo.valid(), if .F. is returned the value stays at the new (invalid) value, and I have to restore the original value with some code like this.value=this.origvalue before leaving the validation code.

I've tried returning 1 and 0 instead of .T. and .F., but this doesn't seem to make any difference. Combo.style=2 (dropdown list).

Has anyone idea what may be happening here, and how to solve the problem? Any help would be appreciated.
