On Dirty Event Not Firing

[MarkA70]

What would cause the On Dirty event not to fire on a form. The form does not have data being entered programatically.

 

[arnelgp]

it will not fire if you did not change/add anything on any control on the form.

I don't think it fires on unbound forms either.

 

[missinglinq]

Nor will it fire if one or more Controls have a Default Value.

Perhaps a little more explanation of what's going on, here, would help us help you!

It should still fire when a control is changed by the user. Did in a brief test, with a bound form and a control with a default value.

Of course it will! It'll fire (maybe I should say 'should fire') anytime data in entered into Control or existing data is edited. But simply because a Default Value 'appears' in a New Record doesn't mean that, in fact, a New Record has been created!
