SYMPTOMS
========

When you run a form that contains a grid object, clicking outside the grid fires
the Valid event of the grid before it fires the valid event of the current
control in the grid.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at
the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Problem
--------------------------

1. Create a new form.

2. Add a grid, and set its ColumnCount property to 1.

3. Add a command button to the form, outside the grid.

4. In the Valid event procedure of the grid, place this code:

     WAIT WINDOW "Valid of the Grid"

5. In the Valid event of Text1, the current control for the grid column, add
  this code:

     WAIT WINDOW "Valid of Grid Control"

6. From the Command window, open any table and then run the form. Position the
  cursor in the text box of the grid. Click the command button and note that
  the Valid event of the grid fires before the Valid event of Text1 fires.
