In my findings of event firing order, I've noticed there is a difference
between using a mouse vs. the keyboard to navigate:
Text boxes on a form:
Keyboard :
TB1.Valid
TB1.LostFocus
TB2.When
TB2.GotFocus
Mouse:
TB1.Valid
TB2.When
TB1.LostFocus
TB2.GotFocus
Text boxes in a grid (changing columns):
Keyboard:
BeforeRowColChange
TB1.Valid
TB1.LostFocus
TB2.When
TB2.GotFocus
AfterRowColChange
Mouse
TB1.Valid
TB1.LostFocus
TB2.When
TB2.GotFocus
AfterRowColChange
