So, Ed, this intermediate value you're talking about, you mean the value that the user has typed in but hasn't been committed to the controlsource, right? In other words, once the LostFocus fires (as opposed to completes?) the escape key will no longer revert to the original value.
I tried this just now with VFP8, and I can escape to get the original value regardless of whether I return .F. from the valid or NODEFAULT in the LostFocus. So in both cases, neither one writes the value to the controlsource using either technique.
I maintain my assertion that LostFocus and Valid are the same thing.
