OnDirty not responding as expected

[rgates]

I have tried to display a message asking if you are sure you want to change data when you enter a field that already contains data. This is via a combo box.

Even when the entry is new, the message comes up. I have tried using OnDirty, OnChange, and AfterUpdate, but I always get the message on new input. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Try the BeforeUpdate event for the combo box.
