problem with lostfocus

[curioustinker]

hello,

i have a textbox with a lostfocus event..my problem with it is that, it won't let me click on the exit button unless the input is already correct. is it possible to avoid this? i mean..if the User decided not to continue anymore, he should be allowed to exit..i really cant find a solution..pls help..

ive tried to use the change event..however, the message box telling about the incorrect input is shown twice before i can exit the program..

any idea?

thanks
