Hi,

I have an unbound form with a save button. Currently, I do all my
validation when the save button is clicked. Is there a better way to
do this? It seems a little neanderthal to lump my validation code with
my onclick code.

Thanks in advance,

Paolo
 
You could put validation that simply concentrates on the value in a specific
control in the LostFocus event of that control.
