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!
