Keep a dataset in dsInsert/dsEdit mode after validation fails

If you want to keep a dataset in dsInsert/dsEdit mode after a validation fails, but do not want to loose your input, use Abort in the BeforePost() event.

(If you would use Dataset.Cancel, you'd loose the input and return to browse mode.)

	procedure TForm1.Table1BeforePost(DataSet: TDataSet); begin if Table1ID.Value <= 0 then begin // the data is invalid!! Showmessage('Error! Invalid value!'); Abort end else Table1.Post; end;
