I am thinking of the case where I have a form open and validation

that same control with the validation still pending. (It is possible
that one of the controls in the first form whose value is changed is
the one that had the validation going.)
As VFP does not allow you to issue a setfocus from a Valid, doing that
will definitely bite you. Maybe you'll need to adjust your way of
thinking.
I can think of two ways to do that:
1. Move your validation code to the LostFocus. If the Validation fails
and you do not want to move onto another control/form, issue NODEFAULT.
or
2. Leave your validation code in the Valid(), but set a flag during the
validation to indicate what should occur in the LostFocus. That is
indicate if to run the other form, or move onto another control.
