Form Event

[jimkerry]

What form event occurs if any when the data in a form moves from one record to another?

How [why] are you moving the data from one record to another?

The form or field AfterUpdate event will fire after the data has been updated. You can use the form or field BeforeUpdate event to trap the action before it happens.

Sorry, I'm not actually moving any data - I'm just scrolling through the recordset and want to create an event which refreshes data in a linked list on the same form containing related data.

The Form_Current event fires when moving from one record to another. It also fires when a bound form first loads and the first record is displayed.

In this case you need to refer to the On Current event.
