Why not use the "textChanged" message? It does not care about the method that the user might use to, er, change the text.
On the other point, did you mean the "pasteKey" message? This is trapped by the IDE unless you turn off development tools. Check out the "Development" menu.

This worked until someone copied the data into the input field. To validate such copied data too, I look for a method / message to trigger the data validation after pasting. But I didn´t find a solution. There is a message „passkey“ which I didn´t get it to work. May you help? Richard.
