Hello All!
Is it possible to trigger an event after the form was opened (as soon as it opened) without pressing any keys. The On activate or the On got focus doesn't work. Thanks Abe |

Thanks Abe Try the Form's Open event - which occurs before the form's records have been retrieved, and can be cancelled - or its Load event, which occurs after the controls have been loaded with the data from the selected record, before the user starts interacting with the form.

What are you trying to accomplish? Maybe the OnLoad event will work for you.

Will the OnLoad event work for you or do you need to look at the timer event?

BTW, Abe, GotFocus only works for a form if the form either A) has no
controls on it or B) all visible controls are disabled. The OnActivate only fires if you have two or more windows open in Access and you switch from one to another. -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!
