I'm glad that worked... I'm still checking to see if there is a way to work around it if the BindingUpdateMode is still set to OnPropertyChanged, but it's not looking that way.

Ben,

Thanks for the 'OnValidation' tip. That results in the behavior I was looking for.

Hrm. Thanks for the heads up on that Larry. I'll check into that. One think you might do is try changing the BindingUpdateMode on the TextBox control from OnPropertyChanged to OnValidation and see if that helps. That will set the binding to only push its entered data back to the business object when the control validates.

One problem with the new trim options in OM is that if you set “Trim Left and Right” you cannot enter text with an embedded space. For example if I have a field called business name I would like to allow “Microsoft Corporation” but not “_Microsoft Corporation”, “Microsoft Corporation_“, or “_ Microsoft Corporation_“. In this case when you try to enter the blank following “Microsoft” the cursor repositions to the beginning of the text. The only way to add the space is to insert it after you’ve entered the entire text string. I can code around this but it would be nice if there were some way for the framework to automatically handle it.
