I want to terminate Accept in a Msg-Validate event of an entry field but I am not able to. I have tried "move EVENT-ACTION-TERMINATE to EVENT-ACTION" and "move EVENT-ACTION-FAIL-TERMINATE to EVENT-ACTION", both seem to be ignored by the RT v6.1.

My accept statement is:
ACCEPT Screen-Name on EXCEPTION PERFORM Screen-Name-Evaluate-Func

The entry field is one of the controls on Screen-Name. Tab Key is used to move from one control to another.

Any help would be much appreciated.
