No, I'm not saying that. I just don't know what I'm doing. Clearly.
I can follow instructions, I just don't know how to use what I've been tasked with using. I'm not familiar with the terminology so have to guess a lot.
I started following the instructions from the Microsoft article ...
.... HOLY COW..
This time I scrolled all the way down the code window, looking for duplicate code (you said that's what might be the problem). Found another bit called Form_BeforeUpdate that had no actual code under it .. was just start sub, then Form_BeforeUpdate, then end sub. Took a big breath and deleted it. Now the new LastModified works without throwing an error.
Thank you CJ London and David R for your time and patience with me ... thank you thank you.
What I can't understand now is how and why it broke in the first place when I didn't touch any of the code. I was simply opening the database, entering/editing records and closing. It worked one day, and not the next. There were windows updates overnight though. I blame Microsoft
Thank you again. You guys rock.
