Access subform onbeforeupdate fires when internet explorer started

[Robert]

Hi,
I have a subform bound to a main form. When I edit a
record in run time and then start my browser (ie 6), the
unbeforeupdate() event is fired. When I do the same, but
not on a subform but just in a regular form then the event
is not fired when my browser is started. The access
database has been working ok for a long time, but since
not to long this error happens. Does anyone knows a fix
for this problem?

Thanks,
Robert

How do you start IE6?
Do you click some button or hyperlink in the main form?
If so, Access will save the subform record as it always does before it
allows focus to move back to the main form.

Allen,

I just start IE6 through the start panel or though an icon
on my quick launch toolbar in my taskbar, just pointing to
IEXPLORE.EXE. So there is no hyperlink or something in my
form.

Allen,

I figured out that when I turn of the automatic
configuration script in the internet options within the
Lan settings, the problem does not occur. So it seems like
starting the configuration file (.ins) is firing the
onbeforeupdate() event in the subform in the access
database (and only in a subform!).

Hope this will help...

Regards,
Robert

Sorry: I don't know of a causal connection between these objects.
