Switchboard

[Maria Kuhn]

I'm working with switchboards for the first time. I want one of the buttons to open a form (which I can do), and then go into a find record,(on the form I have a find record button which was created using the wizard). How do I get this routine to execute?

Hi MK

Your FIND button has a Name property eg "x"

On this form 'On open' event type:- "x"_Click eg:- buttonname_Click

Thats it-
However if you wish this to run even if the form has previously been opened, do same above, but using 'On_Activate' event

So: Use 'On Open' event if ONLY if required first time form is opened
'On_Activate', if required to run on ALL occasions form is 'opened': - first or opened from background
