On open / on load

[Dick7Access]

Do I have the correct understanding of “on load” and “on open” events?
Opening an app doesn’t necessarily load all forms. A form can be loaded, but not necessarily open. Opening a form does necessarily load it, if it is not already loaded.

Correct. No. No.

always use ON LOAD.
avoid OPEN

@Ranman256

How about some supporting evidence for your rather sweeping claim?

Correct. No. No.

Thanks for the link. It looks like you figured out where I was ultimately going.

I can't read it all right now as I am in process of fixing my wife's HP. In a few hours I should have my back up computer back from Staples with Win 10 on it.
Do they have Staples Office Supply in UK and Australia?

BTW Staple are installing Win 10 free of charge!!!
