<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I'm entering quite a lot of data from different
forms into a single database. I need to validate the data on each entry point on
each form. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If I use a OnKeyPress, I can write a routine to get
what I want, but I would like to use the routine directly off the field in the
DataModule and not on each form. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In the DM, the OnValidate only checks the data when
it is about to be written which is too late. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The main problems are numbers in the incorrect
format ie 2 decimal points, or multiple signs etc. A maximum and minimum range
would be a real bonus.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>How do I do this ?</FONT></DIV>
