It sounds like you want your exit button to act like a cancel button.Well, no. I want some buttons to not trigger validation. Exit is but one of them. Cancel (if the documentation is correct) only allows for one such button.
Hi, Gene. Good to hear another voice from the past! Are you still in the Great White North?
I'm not sure I understand the problem you're having with LostFocus(), having to check which control the mouse is in. Are you using the LostFocus() for the specific control, or are you using the one for the form itself? We've never touched the form's LostFocus().
I try to use Valid() as much of the time as possible, but there are situations when validation may require another form to pick a valid value, and we fell over the rule that you can't have two Valid() events on the stack. So we moved those to LostFocus() and all works pretty well.
