Update Event not triggered

[94Sport5sp]

Hi:

I have a form which displays information in the footer until the use has accomplished some tasks. Once I verify that all is well I allow the user to change the fields in the footer. I want to verify that the proper changes were made but the BeforeUpdate event does not fire until the form is closed.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Where do you have the BeforeUpdate event, at the form or at the control?

Hi JHB:

Ha! Good question and now I know the answer to my question. The code I have is at the form level so it will not trigger until the user moves to a new record or closes the form.

Thanks

Good you solved it, sometime "a step backwards" helps.
