    I added two listboxes to AP20 and upon add or change update the Invoice Group by concatenating the values in the listboxes.

    Normally, if you key in a value that's not in the list and tab out of the field, the system stops you from processing and provides a "Value not in list" message. However, if you simply type in a value and click change on the form without leaving the field, it allows the change and updates the field even though there's a "Value not in list" message.

    I'd like to capture that message, alert it on screen and stop all other processing but can't get the message.

    Any ideas? It's not an AGS call so getMessage doesn't work.

      How about coding am edit in the FORM_OnBeforeTransaction function ?

      Something like:

      vEmpStatus = lawForm.getFormValue("select103",0);
      if (vEmpSTatus != "FC" && vEmpStatus != "FN" && vEmpSTatus != "FT" && vEmpStatus != "FP")
      {
      alert("Invalid Status" + vEmpStatus);
      return false
      }

      The retrun false should prevent any further processing.
