Thank you for your quick and helpfull response:

To Craig Newman: 
- textChanged is sent after each typed character; DataValidation should start 
after the end of Typing; so it needs extra coding :-(
- Hint re "pasteKey trapped by IDE" will help. 

To Bob Sneidar:
- The CloseFiled msg is sent after pressing return, tab or…
-> press return after pasting data or use pasteKey-msg! I´ll try!


Richard.
