I haven't time to set up the code you sent, but if I understand what you are trying to show, add one line of code to the start of the click method of the toolbar button, before your messagebox:

_Screen.ActiveForm.ActiveControl.SetFocus()

That doesn't work. The control gets focus, then the messagebox runs, and the form shuts down.

Even if there was some way to make this work, it's a bad idea to tie validation code to the controls that display the data. If you need to handle the same data elsewhere, now you have to duplicate your validation code.
