Something like (a little silly) :)


Private $iChange As Integer


Public Sub TextBox1_Change()

   Inc $iChange
   If $iChange = 2 Then
     Label1.Visible = False
   Endif
   $iChange = 1

End

Public Sub TextBox1_LostFocus()

   If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
     Label1.Visible = True
   Endif

End

Public Sub TextBox2_Change()

   Inc $iChange
   If $iChange = 2 Then
     Label2.Visible = False
   Endif
   $iChange = 1

End

Public Sub TextBox2_LostFocus()

   If TextBox2.Text = "" Then
     Label2.Visible = True
   Endif

End
