Problem with FocusChanged

[dbryan]

The first issue I ran into when generating members is that the procedure did not seem to generate correctly. I already did a bug alert on that.

So I wrote the following procedure and it doesn't get called. Can someone tell me how I'm doing this wrong? I want this to execute every time the field loses focus, but when debugging it never seems to trigger.

Dim addTxtSSN As EditText

Sub addTxtSSN_FocusChanged (HasFocus As Boolean)
   Dim s As String
   Dim myError As Int
   If HasFocus = False Then
      If addTxtSSN.Text <> "" AND addTxtSSN <> Null Then
         myError = 0
         s = addTxtSSN.Text
         If s.Length <> 11 Then 
            myError = 1
         Else
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(0,0)) = False Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(1,1)) = False Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(2,2)) = False Then myError = 1
            If s.SubString2(3,3) <> "-" Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(4,4)) = False Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(5,5)) = False Then myError = 1
            If s.SubString2(6,6) <> "-" Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(7,7)) = False Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(8,8)) = False Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(9,9)) = False Then myError = 1
            If IsNumber(s.SubString2(10,10)) = False Then myError = 1
         End If
         If myError = 1 Then
            Msgbox("Invalid SSN format","Invald Format")
            addTxtSSN.Text = ""
         End If
      End If
   End If
End Sub

Try this corrected code. It worked for me:

Dim addTxtSSN As EditText    'dimed in Globals

Sub addTxtSSN_FocusChanged (HasFocus As Boolean)
    Dim s As String
    Dim myError As Int
    If HasFocus = False Then
        If addTxtSSN.Text <> "" AND addTxtSSN <> Null Then
            myError = 0
            s = addTxtSSN.Text
            If s.Length <> 11 Then 
                myError = 1
            Else
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(0,1)) = False Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(1,2)) = False Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(2,3)) = False Then myError = 1
                If s.SubString2(3,4) <> "-" Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(4,5)) = False Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(5,6)) = False Then myError = 1
                If s.SubString2(6,7) <> "-" Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(7,8)) = False Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(8,9)) = False Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString2(9,10)) = False Then myError = 1
                If IsNumber(s.SubString(10)) = False Then myError = 1
            End If
            If myError = 1 Then
                Msgbox("Invalid SSN format","Invalid Format")
                addTxtSSN.Text = ""
             Else
                 Msgbox("You got it right!","")
            End If
        End If
    End If
End Sub

The problem isn't in the code. the problem I'm having is that the Sub is not being called as the focus is lost/gotten. I have it in debug mode and marked to stop when it is executed, but it never activates.

I already had it defined in globals. I wish I could understand why it isn't activating.

See my question in the other thread. It is probably related.

It was. Once I saved the event name everything worked fine.

Thanks to both of you.
