I have many browses that I would like to have row-level

The most important case is the work transaction table. It
gets data from DE and from importing from other systems used by
the company. All of this has to agree. Before invoicing, there
is a step we call "editing" where the data is checked for
consistency. This requires 1) being able to look at many rows at
once and 2) being able to edit the data. I want full validation in there.
One of the row-level validation rules required is that
basicchg+ovrhdefee=dsbamt+xsvamt
(Those are four columns of the table.)
Ok, so these 4 columns have to pass this rule. Simple enough having
a form method to do some checking and you can then colour the row if
it does not match this rule. The user then knows it has an error
and can fix it. From what you have said so far it appears you want
to do the validation using the valid event for each column. I'm not
sure that will work. E.g. If you
start off with this data:
No, I do not want to do the validation using the valid event
for each column. That would not work. I want to use
BeforeRowColChange to do the row-level validation, and when it fail,
put the focus on one of the controls involved in the error.
