Hi Terry,
thx for pointing this out; a few (well actually a lot--but let's keep
those for the coming months) questions remain however, so if you
don't mind....

Remember, the Timer will only run when all other code is finished.
It will not execute its action event if there are other threads in
your app still running. I say this because you stated, "when the
first event loops finishes" which sort of implies that there's more
code to come.
OK, I think I understand, but this looks (in my unexperienced eyes) a
lot like a workaround (which I'll happily use, so much for principles).
So the rundown is: when I have a Msgbox let the eventqueue become
empty and then let an action in a timer pick up.
Now not to be called lazy, :-) I tried a couple of other
possibilities where one of them suffered also from I think related
problems.
I'm still in a LostFocus event
if I do
if me.Text <> fld_password.Text then
me.Text = ""
fld_password.SetFocus()
end if
the fld_password.SetFocus() doesn't seem to get executed (and the
cursor just goes to the next (in taborder) field).
As I said, the workaround provided will do fine, but the learning
part of me is craving for more ;-)
