What is the difference between these two ?
Which one run first ?


Thank you

Put a breakpoint in both events, the you'll know which one are trigged first.

the thing about the open event is that it is cancellable.

you can put some tests in there and decide not to open the form, which will give you a 2501 error.

once you "pass" the open event, then the form will open.


otherwise, there is no difference between the open and load events, I think.

This can be an important issue

If memory serves, data is not yet available in the open event.
