Default Popup form selection not triggering afterChange

Hi All,

I have a popup form that allows the user to select a record for a pickup
location. When the user double clicks it it correctly places the selected
record in the main form. It doesn't trigger the AfterChange Event though.
The control is a combo box and when I pull down to find the location it does
trigger it. How can I make the popup form method call the same event? I
tried copying the event and making the appropriate changes to tack it on the
to the end of the double click event in the popup form but it doesn't seem
to work.

Thanks as always,
Mike

Have you tried using the Before Update event instead? The Change event is my
least favorite and I use it only in very rare circumstances. Mainly because
it fires after every keystroke. When that is what I want is only when I use
it.

Will Before Update use the new value in the control?

I believe so, but if it does not, try the After Update. It depends on how
your pop up behaves.
