Andrew, I misread your question.... as the others have said, use the LostFocus event. The RaiseEvent simply activates the code in the Setfocus() event of the targeted object but doesn't actually set the focus to the object.
I must read the question better from now on but at least you may now know what RaiseEvent does!

I'm using VFP9 service pack1, so the 'RETURN thisform.cmdSendTest' should have worked re the help file. I even tried a standard grid in case it was my framework getting in the road. Dave, I will have a look at RaiseEvent, never tried that before.
